I hope SDworx are less dominant in other races, it kills a bit of the excitement for me.
I don’t know if we can conclude that CUL is less agressive this year after two races, but I agree her tendency to give up even before a sprint irks me a bit too as a fan, I want all the uci points for her she can get. Today, I think AVV might have surprised her though in the line. Also, Cavalli says

That CUL did not have the best legs yesterday, and she suffered a lot, so that was also a possible explanation for lack of aggression. Last year after the restart, it also tool CUL a few races before she really hit her form.
DSM have been invisible so far this year, weird that..
I haven’t really understood the hype about Spratt as leader this year, her results last year before the crash , AVV or no AVV, were not indicative of great things to come imo. She had a good run in 2019 and seems sympathetic though, so I wish her well.
Otherwise, as a Dane, I am super happy about Norsgaard’s start to the season and CUL has done as expected (please surprise me with a wwt win!!)
