Track Changes icon in Ribbon changed from switch to dropdown (with no update)

This change is, UTTERLY INFURIATING. "For everyone" or "only me" is completely irrelevant for people who are not 'collaborating' on shared documents EVER. As a professional editor, I need to maintain unitary control of a working version/master document. I also need to be able to toggle track changes on and off, because sometimes I want the changes tracked so client can see them, and sometimes, I don't (for example, closing up extra space).. Now, when I turn off track changes from the top ribbon, it also changes View, so all THE CHANGES I MADE ARE NO LONGER VISIBLE. So now turning it off is a worthless feature. Instead I have to keep tracked changes on, and then highlight and accept each change I don't want the client to see or deal with, as I go. This adds several steps and time to a process that was working PERFECTLY FINE BEFORE. When this first happened I thought something was corrupted in my Word program and I spent hours on the phone with Microsoft technicians who didn't know about this change either, and didn't get why it would be made, and ultimately thought there was something wrong with Word and that I should uninstall and reinstall it, and/or my Mac user profile was corrupted, so then I spent tons of time creating a new user profile only to find out that this was the 'new Word' and actually intentional. Meanwhile you add this patronizing 'Editor' button to grade me on my 'concision' and 'grammar' as if your algorithm, functions better than my brain, on a skill I've cultivated for 35 years. In fact often these automated 'grammar' things are ridiculously wrong which was annoying enough when limited to spellcheck. WhY do you keep 'fixing' what isn't broken? This program is becoming less and less useful for editing professionals. Shouldn't that be a signal that something is wrong with these "improvements"?
