Both candidates launching into a scripted spiel regardless of what question was asked is something I have seen in basically every presidential debate in recent history.

It seems worse, somehow. But maybe I've just forgotten.

Harris got a question, explicitly said she'd answer all the points, and then all she did was elaborate on "my values haven't changed".

I wonder if it’s more obvious since there’s no crowd to play to.

That might be it. No crowd, muted microphones, and a known time limit if one happens to be into that whole "preparation" thing.
