From Mike Hughey:

> I just actually tried a few of the scrambles. I didn't realize that it starts off solving the cubic version, then moves away from square at the end. So it's kind of like one of my BLD solves in reverse - cool! That actually makes it much easier to scramble - the puzzle stays cubic until the last 7 or fewer moves or so. So if you mess up early, you'll know you did, and it will be relatively easy to solve and try again since you don't have to get to square (unless you mess up at the end). This seems a lot nicer than the old scrambler, actually. -

This should be mentioned somewhere.
