For those who are saying they don't like scores because they show when you're near the end... just curious, what if the score wasn't displayed on the main screen? What if you could only see it from the game options, or if you had the choice to toggle it on/off the main screen? Do you think that would change your opinion?

Just thinking that might be a good alternative, especially for those who like to go back and replay to get points they missed. You could play through the first time without seeing the score (the game would still be tracking it for you, but you wouldn't see it on screen). The second time you played you could opt to have the score turned on, so you could try various things to try to get all the points. On the second play through, you'd already know how the game ends, so seeing the score wouldn't ruin anything for you.
