Sweating bones before adding liquid primarily does what?

It softens bones and releases moisture; causes bones to release flavor more quickly when liquid is added

Sweating bones before adding liquid primes flavor extraction by gently warming the bones to draw out moisture and lightly render any fat. This softens the surface and releases moisture, so once liquid is added, the bones begin contributing flavor (and later gelatin) more quickly during simmering. It’s not about drying the bones, instant clarification, or rapidly raising the temperature; it’s about prepping the bones to release their flavor efficiently.
