I think it's just there to compete with the two-handed fighting style now. The burst damage for single-handed fighting I think still outperforms the two-weapon fighting done this way, but the all-day damage from two-weapon fighting seems to outperform the all-day damage from single-handed fighting for at least half the levels.And if that's the case, I like that balance. Barbarians and Paladins with a single weapon can outperform damage-wise with bursts of limited use abilities and some resting recharges. The fighter (and I think Ranger) can sustain good damage with two weapons without resting. The later two can now also make good use of thrown weapons.Here is a screen-shot summary of the rules (just didn't want to much-up the prior post):<img src="https://i.ibb.co/nQGxSK9/image.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></blockquote>
