Less information? I can now understand people's projects far quicker, and read information about them far quicker.

As both a designer, and a programer, neither side of me has complaints. It's much cleaner and very much a step in the right direction.

Just because you're not fumbling to say what a beautiful new change it is, I am betting without realising it will make your life easier.

People don't like change.

Never say never, Less is more, blah blah blah.
