This is a terrible change. It's much less informative than the old layout.

The new layout is way too long. On a desktop monitor, it takes up the whole screen. The old layout only takes up around 20% of the screen.

Arranging the information as columns instead of rows makes the table much more difficult to read. Since the table takes up the whole page, your eyes need to move around much more to extract the useful information out of the table.

Humans read english horizontally, from left to right, which is how a person would read the table in the old layout.

Putting the information vertically, from top to bottom, makes the information harder to read. It doesn't help that the table takes up the whole page; your eyes would have to move through the entire screen just to get four pieces of information. What makes it worse is that when moving your eyes from top to bottom, the colored bars break up any flow and continuity of table.

Imagine █████ if █████ you █████ were █████ reading █████ a █████ book █████ and █████ between █████ each █████ word █████ there █████ was █████ a █████ colored █████ rectangles █████ placed █████ there.

I agree with the other comments here. Please change it back.
