Some of these designs choices just seem so backwards though. And while all these cutesy analogies we're throwing around are great, what I'm really interested in is exactly HOW the UI Design Team came to these decisions.
There are a multitude of questions, but speaking specifically about the 'Write' page... why decide to remove all the panels from the sidebar and replace them with white space? Why are the panels no longer customizable via drag and drop? I think these are decisions lots of folks can't wrap their heads around. And maybe if we knew WHY these changes were made, it'd be easier to handle. But instead we're told, "You have to break a few eggs to make an omlet." Not very insightful. Just my two cents.
