Display of Moves in Analysis tab of Daily Games

Hopping on to a 3-day I've got going just now, I was surprised to find the way the game moves are displayed in Analysis (Daily > Analysis > Moves) has changed pretty significantly. The previous nested parentheses are now an odd sort of tabbing. What was the reason for the change, and is there an option to revert to the previous display mode? Thanks.

I don't know the specific reasons for the update but there's no option to go back. If you have specific feedback on the new design, you could post it or use Help > Make a Suggestion

No feedback except "please don't make unnecessary interface changes." It's not an obviously better or simpler display mode (of course, I can't refer to the old display mode now that it's gone), and it took me a while to figure out. Since this site has a long history of display mode issues including text sizing messing up the display and zoom percentage messing up the display -- both of which suck for those of us with visual impairment, btw -- I spent longer than I should have trying to correct what I thought was a display issue when it was actually displaying correctly because the change was made with no announcement or explanation. The "is chess.com broken or is it on my end because I changed a display setting" question gets very tiresome.

And now the original display is back. What is going on over there...

It was temporarily rolled back to old code due to a bug when interacting with the Openings tab in Daily Chess.

It will come back next week sometime.
