Sharing chess game links jumps to the end of the game when clicked. WHY?!

When I share a chess game on twitter and someone clicks on it, it jumps to the very end of the game and shows who won.

Why?

If I'm sharing a chess game, I want people to watch it from start to finish, not from the end.  This has always bothered me.  I want to see the game in a simple, lightweight chess viewer.

Other chess sites allow you to share a game and when you click the link, it just shows the beginning position of the board (obviously).

Why do you have it jump right to the end of the game?  That makes no sense.

If you click on analysis you can jump to any move and get a link to the game from that move ;-)

If you then click on details you can even hide the analysis for the initial view if somebody clicks on the link.

Cool. Make that the default.
