What's the difference?
Scores will be lower overall, different shots must be considered.
OIC your point: There IS a difference, something tearing you out of your usual pleasant routine.
Plus, it may be FUN to have an easy round :(
I commiserate you!
(having seen Pleasantville on TV Sunday, a nice lil movie about the acceptance of changes)
P.S. I like the variability, slow greens, legend greens, long tees, short tees - it's like being gifted with new courses. On my solitude early morning RL golf rounds, I like to play "Paul and Paula", one ball from the men's tees, one from the ladies'. Don't think that "Paula" would win too often, given the five strokes "she" has to give away :)
