Pretty devious new tactic: Do an update and then charge people who prefer the older version of your site. Hope this particular dark pattern doesn't take hold in other areas of software.

I don't see this as a dark pattern. Isn't it the equivalent of paying for extended support for legacy/EOL systems?
