The next obvious thing is what's happening in the toolbar. I think the progressive blur from Liquid Glass is cool, but for legibility and clear separation of UI vs. content, I went for the "classic" look. The toolbar is also more compact, so we can actually benefit from the space savings afforded by the combined titlebar. And of course, the humongous drop shadows have been pulled back, now just serving to highlight the capsules. The spacing of the capsules and icons in them were also adjusted.

    Overall, I just tried to bring back a bit of definition in places where it was lacking, such as the icon size slider thumb at the bottom right, which was almost impossible to see, even on the super crisp and nice MacBook Pro display. I'm meh on the huge rounded corners on windows. It's the style of today so I kept them, but the smaller toolbar let me shrink them a bit. The size of the "traffic lights" also matches present Mac OS. Not all things in the Mac UI should grow in perpetuity.
