The cognitive load to be able to read the calendar is quite high. It took me a few seconds to tell what the date/time is. It's very cool, but I am not sure if this is good design.

Good point but think of it like this how many years have you looked at the other type of analog clock, in comparison.

I prefer boring that works vs. new that doesn't work.

What would be cool if the new thing worked really well and it was different/interesting.

This design is only the latter, hence the slight disdain. But, I applaud the work that went into it.

It's not that it doesn't work. It actually works better than the old way. You think it doesn't work because you're not used it.
