Good point, by making the questions harder you really need to hope that the top player is unfamiliar with the category. The game makers would be better off making the questions easier in hopes that the other players are controlling the board when the Daily Doubles are found.

Perhaps they want the streaks (while I don't like long streaks, it likely does well with the ratings as the US market LOVES a when Goliath destroys everyone, and after a good and LOOOOOOOOONG run then David can get lucky).
