D&D (2024) Is anyone at WOTC paying attention to what they print any more?

I really wish that you’d change the title of this thread to something less incendiary. Is the purpose to attack WotC, or to legitimately look for errors that need to be addressed?

Because the mindflayer grapple criticism seems like the former.

It is not identical, the 2014 had an Intelligence save to avoid the stun, this does not.

I was referring to the part in which you have an escape DC for the grapple, but you are stunned and thus can't escape.

As someone else has pointed out, it is possible to be immune to the Stunned condition, and thus the escape DC would be useful in those situations. Otherwise players immune to being Stunned would just be grappled forever with no possibility of escape.
