But isn't it a net loss for area devoted to notes? Why not stack L0, R0? Wait, what are L0 and R0 anyway?

No, it expands the note area. The left bar used to be twice as wide. The bottom bar is just a sliver.
So it does.
On my 1920x1080 pixel display, the area on the left nav bar to be gained would be about 161x944 or 151984 pixels while the new bottom bar to be lost would be about 1553x74 or 114922, a net gain of around 37K pixels.
And that is when it is drawn wide across the whole screen. My gossip window is full screen height, but less than half the screen wide.
L isn't used. I'm not sure what it was intended for nostr:npub1hlq93jdtkfg29a8s7fqzzzh82q3pkc20rxucwt4geh6e56wk3y2qxdz5wg ? nostr:npub10000003zmk89narqpczy4ff6rnuht2wu05na7kpnh3mak7z2tqzsv8vwqk ?
R is for relay connection confirmation, authentication confirmation, NIP-46 request confirmation.
P is for pending items (usually lists out of sync or haven't been published recently).
Also the bottom bar gets the message area and the go-offline switch so it's not wasted.
L was intended to capture general app Logs, but we need to decide how to segment them and surface the most important (critical) ones, so the user is alerted with the counter and the change of color.
