Yes. Absolutely.
They should have made their new version a new extension. I think they were trying to take advantage of the previous user install base without realizing this is really a power-user addon.
I'm impressed that they are willing to help while they try and get a handle.
Ideally they would do what you said and issue a "roll-back" to v2.0 with a link to the enhanced add on.
I applaud them for their openness and responsiveness, not their marketing tactics. We'll see where it goes from here.
