I had the same experience. It took me multiple tries to figure it out. Hence, I vote for a simpler, click-to-expand TOC, ideally using some standard affordance, such as a chevron, a button, or similar. Another, even more low-tech alternative would be a "Skip to Content" button, shown above always-visible TOC. Historically, show-on-hover proved to be useful for smaller, often non-essential UI elements, such as tool tips, not important, possibly full-screen elements, like a TOC. P.S. This is not to say anything negative about this effort; the new design is already better than the old one, and I am grateful for the work that is being done.
