How about adding some additional details about the changes in the theme, like you did for the taskbar theme?
Probably the most visible change is the hidden search bar in the start menu, what are the other main changes?

@m417z did some small changes such as organizing the mod settings

which include:
* Squared search box
* no search box on the start menu
* changed 'All' to 'All apps' like it was on older Windows 11 builds
* Reverted the search icon back to the one from 22000
