I have also submitted a case regarding the regressions in UI/UX for screensavers:
Tahoe has redesigned the UI for System Settings to remove the Screen Saver pane altogether.
Instead, you access Screen Savers from within the Wallpaper settings.
This has the following issues:
Confusion - macOS has emphasized the importance of Screen Saves in recent years, and users expect to have a Screen Saver pane
Usability - although you can access the Screen Savers settings, it’s now hidden behind a button within the Wallpaper settings, and the resulting window runs as a very small modal non-resizable dialog. Since macOS ships with dozens of screensavers by default, forcing the user to navigate these in a tiny window is just silly.
Backwards compatibility is broken. For example, the command
open x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.ScreenSaver-Settings.extension
No longer works in Tahoe.
