This is an interesting choice for a desktop developer tool. Was this purely a design choice, or did the new structure end up being more accessible?

Since the flexbox inspector is is a sidebar in the DevTools, they're working with similar size constraints as a mobile device. I think taking design inspiration from mobile makes sense.
