For what it's worth, they did similar things to the iOS app a good while ago and I still haven't gotten used to it. It's profoundly wasteful of my 4" of screen real-estate.
I never got used to Facebook's timeline either before they had the (IMO) good sense to put the wall back into a single column.
Change aversion is a real thing, but not every new change is actually a good idea. My feeling is there's a lot of legitimate bad idea in this redesign.
