Almost certainly useless writing this post but here we go.

@ag_Gabriele I've said it before and I'll say it again. Quick Access is clearly designed for keyboard jockeys. This is what happens when DEVS start thinking their customer base is comprised primarily of other DEVS (or at least "techie, power user" types). And perhaps that is the case now. But for typical users on the individual or family plans taking information that was easily visible before and hiding it behind "more" menus necessitating extra clicks only adds unnecessary friction to the UX. And outlining various arcane keystroke combinations to speed things up is only useful to other keyboard jockeys. It does nothing for those users who prefer to use the mouse or trackpad.
The bottom line is that 1PW Mini had a UI that balanced the needs searchers and browsers. Of keyboard jockeys and mousers/trackpadders. Unfortunately, Quick Access who thrown the latter camp under the bus in favor of a UI that only the former could love.
