I believe you. But I also believe that this change was made based on a false dichotomy of mouse vs keyboard. By removing most of the mouse-accessible components, they saved a few pixels on the X and Y at best, at the cost of completely alienating all of their mouse users. They could have simply improved their keyboard support while still maintaining the small band of toolbars. It would have been effectively the same result for keyboard folks without the hostile change imposed on mouse folks.
