Default Pro Tools First 12.8 features added/removed

Any Pro Tools | First user noticed (or cared) that there was an update v12.8 today?

Be careful, Avid did something unusual!
Usually, an update adds new feature to an app, but Avid managed to remove, not one, but quite a few times.

What features we lost:
  • No Clip List anymore (WTF?)
  • No more "Mirrored MIDI Editing"
  • No more "Dynamic Transport Mode"
  • No more Edit Point Selection Points
  • No more Workspace (Soundbase instead)

What features we gained:
  • 10 Insert Slots
  • 10 Send Slots
  • Track List
  • Freeze Track
  • Cloud Collaboration
  • A new Quick Button
  • A new Mix Window Button
  • Task Manager Status Indicator
  • A few Editing and Fades Enhancements
  • Soundbase with 500MB of Loops

I noticed and I care. Thank you for the warning! I'm a beginner so I must speculate but I wonder if we've lost more than we gained.
Either way, I'm not happy about what I read.
