I could imagine a designer at twitter not being aware of why this feature is so important and removing it, but not why they don't make a public response of some kind.

Does anyone know anything about the change control for the UI features at twitter?

I assume that https://twitter.com/safety/status/465797191869554688 is in relation to this, where they call it a bug. I'm very surprised that they don't have any automated tests for this functionality, though.
