I don't really like the new "Material 3 Expressive" - but unfortunately,
it got installed to my Pixel 6a as part of a regular update and now I
can't go back.

The only thing which is better now: the quick setting tiles in the
notification drawer can now be resized to use less space. But nearly
everything else got worse - transparency effects, things take up more
space, fonts are worse, colors are worse...
