I didn't know about this new display option, and would grumble to myself about how my housemates wouldn't delete things from the shared list when they were done with them, and how we were building up so much clutter. When I asked them, though, I learned that it wasn't a problem for them because they were all on the new layout.

I'm much happier with it now, and having old items stick around at the bottom feels useful (what do we usually get...) instead of feeling like clutter.
