This is a bad thing because...?

That's the way FP has ALWAYS been and will ALWAYS (I hope) be. If you want T-ball, go to a local league and watch. It's exciting. If you have leagues where every kid bats every inning, you could have an inning with two quadruple plays. I know...been there, seen with own eyes.

If you want offense, go see some SP.

FP is a different animal. The game may well evolve into something different, perhaps during our lifetimes, perhaps later. FP now is much the way baseball was 120 years ago.
