Scrabble is far from trivial with a dictionary :)

Exactly why we used to play with various levels - everyone could refer to the two letter word sheet with Q without U words also, and the players given a handicap could use the dictionary, though limited to 30 seconds on their turn.

Ehhh no not what I meant. Scrabble is far from trivial even if you have a solver that shows all possible word combinations with your hand.

High level scrabble play isn’t a greedy algo to get the most points every turn with the best words. Positioning around bonuses matters more.
