What problem does this address?

With the explore option not fully in place yet with the pattern directory integration #44611 we should reconsider the "explore all patterns" option as the modal currently just opens the same exact views of patterns. Currently, it actually opens to "no results" if you don't first select a category:

pattern.explorer.mov

What is your proposed solution?

Until the pattern directory integration work is done, consider removing the "explore all patterns" option ake the pattern explorer.

I think its fine to leave in; it’s not detracting from the experience and I suspect some folks will miss the modal view.

It's better to just update it later with a proper connection to dotOrg patterns, instead of removing/adding it back.

This seems something we should fix though. I don't believe this was always the case.

+1 for keeping to explorer. It provides more real estate for viewing the patterns.

I noticed this as well. So let's mark this as a bug or regression.

Closing this as the explorer will remain, but get leveled-up with a connection to the Patterns Directory #44611
