The unofficial rule is that the office is given to the most recent Speaker who is no longer in that position. Hence McCarthy gave it to Pelosi, now McCarthy is taking it since he’s the most recent former Speaker.

Maybe too much attention being paid at the comings and goings at Frank Luntz's place?

Because she was still running the show. McCarthy should have done this the moment the new Congress was seated.

Mostly Dems voted him out. So spite is a great reason.
