    Also, nobody has explained to me yet what's the major difference between this new Captcha widget and the old one, and why we needed to switch over, other than the addition of the "JotCaptcha" feature that we're not using?!?

    As far as I can see, the new Captcha field offers Google reCaptcha and JotCaptcha.


    Paired with Google's reCaptcha is its option to enable Invisible reCaptcha and the reCaptcha badge visibility option.

    Below is also a taken from our How-to-Add-a-Captcha-Field user guide as an additional info:

    Aside from the visible difference, I am uncertain if there are other internal changes that were made, though as with all other developments, the one that is up-to-date is the more preferred one since even if it has no visible improvements, there might be other improvements internally.
