But I do think it's worthwhile experimenting with and it's easy to get back to the default toolbar layout, så long as the menubar is shown (which it is by defautl ; if one doesn't see it in the ribbon view, click the settings icon (the three horizontal lines) at the upper right and check the alternative)) just click there on View → Toolbar Layout and choose Default....
