Unless I've missed it, it wasn't mentioned in the release notes. I'm curious as to what's the rationale behind this change.

I personally like the older variant much more (since it's more "pronounced"). Any chance of getting it back? (perhaps as a character variant). Thanks.

(P.S: I also noticed the new 5 - which looks too "round-ish" and weird for my taste. But at least the older 5 is available as a character variant...)

Ah, thanks. I remember searching through the issues before opening this, no clue how I managed to miss that. But in any case, I'll close this off as a duplicate.
