I am grateful that we are able to revert back to the old Google Maps for now. I hope that they keep this regression available to their users for a while.
I am a little annoyed that I have to keep going through clickrobatics every time I change back to old Google Maps, and explain why each time. I've already explained a dozen times, quit pestering me. Also, get off my damned lawn.
You can get around this by bookmarking a location. I bookmarked my address in the old maps, and use that as my entry point to google maps. It doesn't ask me to switch to new.
I thought perhaps my way of loading Google Maps would still yield the old style - using '!m address' in DuckDuckGo - but no, sadly, its now the new dumbed-down page.
