So interesting on different regional interpretations.

I was never keen on tea biscuits and now I know why -- they are 'thuddish' heavy things. based on the ingredients explained by helpful folks here.

I am picky on the type of scone that I prefer -- lighter versions with abit of real fruit mixed into batter and baked. Or dried fruit. Often these versions are made with some oatmeal, whole wheat flour, etc. Awhile ago I used to make a scone that used yogurt, not much sugar, flour, fruit, etc.
