It is easy to not read the entire documentation... 😅
Sometimes one skims the documentation and finds the endpoint which seems relevant, and only reads about that endpoint.

Repeating the Board API section notice about restrictions regarding Time Control,
on each endpoint which is affected by the Time Control restriction could help people from pulling their hair... 😅

These are the endpoints I suspect involve Time Control when using the Board API / a token with "board:play" scope:
