Something about it being a number of unnecessary clicks to get somewhere.
Hopefully they didn't implement this to get rid of the problem with unnecessary clicks to get somewhere. The issue isn't the clicking. The issue was never the clicking. Unless you're literally missing your index fingers, or have never used a computer before, you know how to left-click on a mouse with some amount of speed. At least fast enough for the actual click not being the issue.
The issue was that you had to spend time browsing through all those sub-menus to get to the link you wanted when those links were directly visible before. Yes, this new menu thing is more easy on the eye if you're new here, but for those who had been using the same layout since the site was first built, browsing through all those visible links was much faster.
Compare it to my room, for instance. Yes, someone who walks in here might find it chaotic and would believe I spent unnecessary time going through the randomly spread out stuff to find what I needed. However, I know exactly where to find everything, at least the stuff I've been using regularly. If someone comes into my room and starts tidying it up, I'd not be able to find my own ***.
Am I the only one with muscle memory or what?
