I think they've gotten worse about this as an organization over the last few years(?). Earlier this year an update to their mobile app introduced loading time, and resulting slowness, for opening menus that used to be ~instant. To me that smacks of once having known not to do that, but that knowledge having been lost (or priorities having shifted). More specifically, I'm talking about tapping the '...' on a track for the options menu. That should be latency-free, and used to be.
