Speaking about consistency, I really dislike how the new Edge looks - it is like a Frankensteinian monster put together from Chrome and Windows 10. While the icons have been adapted to the Windows 10 look and feel, most controls have not (or only partially). Most importantly, nothing should be round, neither the tabs nor the address bar (which looks weirdly too large as well) nor the context menus.

Hear! Hear! on the controls being round. Chrome still looks like it should be on XP and now newEdge does too. And I don't want to be reminded that this newEdge is Chromium based. To me it's bad enough that Microsoft gave in, but please don't make me look at "Chrome" all the time. I hate Chrome (use oldEdge almost exclusively at home and Firefox at work).
