IIRC from when I first read about the squabble between the Legislature and DeSantis on the maps, the Dems in the Legislature were okay with the first map because it preserved much what they had. Admittedly, my memory on this is fuzzy.

I'm thinking the Republicans in the Legislature wanted to avoid a public fight with DeSantis so they just went with his map.
