I’m not against experimentation and changing things. I liked Material 2 but Material 3 is an improvement in every way. Even some of the changes in this redesign are pretty good. My main issue is with the blur. I don’t think it works well with bold contrasting colors that Material aims to use.
And regarding your point on icon shapes, I kind of get it but also I get the reasoning of having uniform sizes — it does look better. I wish there was a way to have different shapes that are uniform in size. They’ve made these new various shapes and they look nice but it would be even nicer if we could apply different shapes to different icons, and not use one shape exclusively for everything.
