That's true, the new one has more features, like the search function for people with lager bookmark collections. Also on the search it should be a input box instead of a button, that's get selected once you open the menu instead to have to click to open the search.
There is a redundant "Add to Bookmarks Button" near one another once you open the menu(maybe for use when in side bar mode, it could be hidden where is not on the sidebar, and another thing is the 3 dots menu that should be always at the corner of the window, for UI consistence , instead of the pin button.
The old menu has a simplicity to it, it has fewer features but it add to a more classic fell to the browser, the hierarchical way to organize a folder is less distracting since you only see the bookmarks inside a selected folder. Where as the new one you ether open all the folders and let then open and scroll to find what you are looking for or let then closed and open and close when needed, adding another click to the interaction that was a simpler hover 🙂
