The impression I get from the blog post is that users will be able to choose to leave the extra info out, in which case the "new, improved" user page may have the same info as the current page. I'm not sure if that'll mean that users will have to choose to use it, or that those who don't want it will have to blank it.

Either way, I think this falls under "fixing what's not broken".
