At (the old) Microsoft, that would absolutely be considered a regression --- code that used to work no longer does.

The application is brand new, and is built on a brand new macOS API. Nobody broke anything. The point is whether the bug is due to Twitter’s usage of the APIs, or the APIs themselves.
