Thank you Adam for taking the time to reply with the team's reasoning.

 

I respectfully disagree and request the icon be returned to its previous functionality - or at the very least an option for the user to choose to return it to previous functionality.  I agree with wanting consistency across platforms - so make this option on all platforms.
