Even as a streamer who barely streams, not knowing how many channel points anyone has makes it extremely difficult to gauge how much a reward should cost. It would also incentivize people to watch and engage more to climb the leaderboard if it's displayed to the viewer and not just the broadcaster.

In my opinion, this latest test takes away muscle memory from not only avid Twitch users, but for video streaming in general. Not only that, but it just seems very hastily and poorly designed.
1. There is no border to separate the stream information from the player. For example, there is a dividing line underneath the player and to the right where the chatbox is. Which makes the stream information look like it's not supposed to be there.
2. Why is it so dense? The stream title, game, and tags are all on the same line which makes it very difficult to quickly tell what's actually going on - which is the opposite effect of what I assume this test for.
3. This redesign kills muscle memory. Almost all streaming services present the content itself first and foremost, with extra information below the video player. Changing this behavior makes it disorienting and confusing, regardless of if it's a veteran or new user.
I'm not opposed to change, I'm usually open to it. This just doesn't seem like the right move, and I hope the test concludes soon and is reverted.
