Ah, I was just about to ask whether this system is also responsible for a change from offering tags that had more than 3 instances, but upon rereading your post I see that yes it was. Just ran into that now where I had to jump over to the [tags](/tags) page to see whether a tag for something existed, instead of having it pop up as I began to type. Big step down in usefulness, IMO.
By the way - maybe I'm just used to using slow connections and slow devices - but what was unsatisfactory previously, that merited the trade-offs to functionality?
