Delta Award Pricing: Connection vs Direct

I came across something that was strange to me.

Connecting flights that cost less miles than the same flight.

For Example,

lan-dtw-sea On August 3rd 5:50 PM-9:50PM-11:35 PM Prices out at 12,500
miles
DTW-SEA on August 3rd at 9:50 PM prices out at 25,000 miles.

I've seen this on revenue flights but not award tickets. Is this the new normal with Delta awards?

Yes plenty of posts about DL enforcing married segment logic on award tickets.
