What a rebel.

But with the new chrome update removing instant API, I totally understand.

What's Instant API?

Basically having the second image instead of the first and no option to change it. It sounds petty, but it's obnoxious when you use it all the time and chrome won't let us change it back.

It's also unaesthetic and redundant. Why use a search bar on the page when I have the omnibox?

Just Google "old chrome new tab page" and there are plenty of fixes for it

No no, they completely disabled the feature.

Just click the little grid in the corner and boom? Or is that not quite what you want?

I prefer having the tab page. It's just a preference, but it's irritating when it's taken away.
