 If I understood the copy discussion correctly then there was the idea to
 get those folks less confused that came back to Tor Browser with a clean
 install wondering where those icons were gone. They might resort to the
 onboarding and would find the NEW item and would be happy. However, that
 might cause too much confusion for first-time users to be worth it. Hard
 to say. I am fine dropping that plan and just provide something for users
 that updated while any user of a freshly installed Tor Browsers just gets
 the updated onboarding without any "NEW" hint whatsoever.
