Alarm redesign is terrible

Why is the new alarm on iOS 14.1 so annoying to use? The scroll was great and timeless, and now there’s a tiny box that is fiddly and annoying to use, and if you try to scroll you can’t control well because you need to move so far outside the tiny little box. This is a shockingly bad design for something so simple!

iPhone 6s, iOS 14

If I start typing after tapping the + button to open a new alarm (without touching either box in the alarm time) I can type the whole time in without needing to select the next box. The same works if I tap Edit to change an existing alarm.
