Please add legacy menus and tools as a workspace
Please, please add legacy menus and tools as an option for a workspace. I have been using AI 3 for years on my old G5 and recently went to a new iMac and bought the full line monthly for all Adobe programs. Acrobat is so much better, PS is tolerable, but AI is near impossible! Everything has moved, the tools react differently and I'm having a heck of a time trying to find everything! Page setup is gone, I do a lot of Image Tracing (all the way back to when you needed that extra program to do it!) and I'm pretty lost. I have used AI 5 so I know that's okay, AI 6 changed a lot of things so I can't even download the version on the Cloud and use that, it's relatively useless. I'd like to keep the new engine while being able to find everything! Please! I know you can do it on some individual tasks and tools, but doing it as a workspace would make it so much easier.

That's a big gap to jump!
Menu commands are gone for sure, there is no way to customize it, that's no Corel Draw.
Tools and panels you can call back by switching to Essentials Classic (instead of 'newbies-friendly' Essentials).
Page setup had been assimilated into Artboards and options for the dedicated tool — Shift+O, Enter.
Don’t loose hope! Ai changed a lot, gained weight and wrinkles and kept all deceases (and got new), but it can be tolerable.
