Track changes now comments deletions
In previous versions, when Track Changes was on, deleted text was set to strikeout. Now the text is moved into a comment bubble which makes it harder to track what's been changed and you can no longer separate edits from comments. I much prefer the old method.

This is a document setting. It seems the person who created the document you worked on preferred seeing deletions in the comments pane.
Switch via File, Properties, Reviewing, Deletions: Strikethrough.

If you are opening a document that has not been subjected to tracking changes, and you want to track changes, you have to first go to File, Properties, Reviewing, and click on the Track Changes box. It is set to OFF by default.
