I think I've seen others post about this recently as well, and if you sent it my way, sorry for not covering it until now. I am not sure if this is rolling out or just being tested.

Joy Hawkins responded "I feel like they really don't need to redesign the dashboard twice a year."

Google has many issues with spam on Google My Business, it is not clear how a redesign here will help with that.
