And no. It was not an intentional leak. And there are plenty of people that do not share your perspective on this update.

There are people complaining about this update all over the place. I’m sure there are some that like it but there is considerably more negativity than for most updates here, on fb, on Reddit, in team chats, on the play store, etc.

However, I accept your inside info that this was just another monkey cock-up.
