Ottomans start much slower in recent update?

Playing the Ottomans (Osmanli Devleti) in the most recent update, and a few things have changed to make the start much slower/more difficult. You can no longer choose the option to get the realm unification CB against other beyliks, and even more frustratingly I don't seem to get any CBs against them even when I form claims! I was only able to get a CB by claiming land that The Knights then took.

Taking away the realm unification CB I can understand, but why am I not even able to get conquest CBs against the other beyliks? Am I intended to play passively for the starting decades?
