Last year, Google Maps on Android was revamped so that the main view displayed info using sheets, and the full app is getting this redesign.

Wow, you are the first person I’ve “met” who even knows about that book. Fistbump. I have a copy (since my dad used to work as an Apple distributor back then, this was way before they had retail stores like they do now).
While I can see that a good bit of that relatively slim book is (now) less than ideal, it still hurts to see how much UI and UX across all platforms is going downhill. I don’t even recognise a “for the sake of X” because there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it (other than “it’s different and therefore more better. Also, I made this”).
I’m not sure where my copy of the book is, but “bump” right back at you.
The “I made this” factor is in my experience the primary driver, properly “justified” to management who also wants ownership.
I’m unsure what a fix looks like, given the preoccupation of HR departments hiring process with “young” and “innovative” - that HR speak for “cheap”, vs. “experienced” and “considered” - HR speak for you’re too old and expensive, but mostly too old.
