They have no idea what to do with inspiration, so they're throwing it everywhere hoping that something will reveal itself at the table. Getting inspiration on a 1 is still uninteresting to me, but it's infinitely better than getting inspiration on a natural 20, especially in a world where a natural 20 is an 'auto-success' for everything.
Eh, please correct me if I've missed something but why would you use an inspiration on a 20?
Boost a d20 Test. When another creature within 60 feet of you that you can see or hear fails a d20 Test, you can use your Reaction to give the creature a Bardic Inspiration die. The creature rolls that die and adds the number rolled to the d20, potentially turning the failure into a success.
So...you should only use the inspiration if you've failed and since a 20 is an automatic win...
