8 parrots vs 0 parrots on Board B—guess who won?

So as it turns out, drawing the most parrots (more than 50% of all player tiles) does NOT in fact guarantee a win on Board B, even when the other player doesn’t have a single parrot.
My opponent drew most of the parrots in the first few moves. We laughed pretty hard at the extreme state of the final outcome.

Of course if you waste your parrots like that player did you won't win.
And the winning score was lucky to be 28 from just 7 tiles.

This is what I would expect from a competent player - here is an example of 5 parrots to zero.

8-0 parrots is just a silly comparison to make haha. A smart player is only going to play enough parrots to make sure they are ahead on certain tracks to score the most points. Taking it to this extreme is nothing but farce.
