I have to say now that I have it for a while I don't just think it's poorer than before but horrible. It's also illogical for some settings that were global in Settings to be MOVED there, and if they are now per book, where are the global defaults set?

It's awkward, illogical, wasting space on the screen. I hate it. I suppose it's still impossible to go back a version?
The Aa options have always been ‘global’, not per book. So it is logical to include the other Reading Settings in the More panel as these are also global. It is better IMO, having them in one place, and not having to abandon the context of reading to access them, or remember which options were in the other location.

This is now consistent with Kindle app for iOS; I imagine it will come to Android and Fire as well at some point.

Page Refresh and Vocabulary Builder remain in Settings>Reading Settings for some reason.

That said, I wish you could ‘pin’ particular layout settings to a book, letting it be independent of global setting (whenever it changes).
