WHAT IT DOES • Removes Shorts everywhere — the home-feed shelf, the Shorts tab in the menu, Shorts in search results (including the leftover "Shorts" filter button), and Shorts mixed into your recommendations.

Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
