Think that the town is a bit "special-heavy" (too many special buildings and not enough normal residences)
Well, if we assume the Triangle Flats are residences too, along with those properties surrounding Won Seng Courtyard, that looks to be only about 10% "special" areas/places/properties within the walled city, which seems perfectly reasonable overall (and also treating the walls, gates and wall-towers as separate from this minor exercise).

Might be worth sharpening-up the glow on the text lettering. The "misty" look is fine in places, but where it drops-out - most obvious on "The Staryy Cholovik" label - it starts to be less easy to read.
The scale-bar is very hard to read, and although the grid helps in that regard, the actual scale-size of that grid needs to be clearer.

Text Angle
If you mean using the "Rotate" command on text, you can just rotate the angle of the text freely without using Shift at all.
If you need the text to be at a specific angle (which the Shift key option allows, but only at 15° intervals), use one of the Edit Text functions (such as Numeric Edit, or Edit Properties), and just type in the angle you need the text to be at.

Island Chain annual
The Arabic script recurs quite frequently with various CC3+ installs I've noticed, and over at least the last couple of years, though you sometimes have to be quite quick to spot it, and I haven't paid it much mind till now. I assumed there was a good reason for it.
[Or maybe some Cthulhoid cult's hacked into the CC programs, checking for what non-Euclidean-angle geometry's possible in constructing maps, maybe, or whether they can randomly design night-sky charts to make the stars "right" ๐.]
Has anyone tested the new installer?
Yes, and I had no problems with it. It ran through a couple of reinstall/repair screens before it got to the normal CC3+ windows (with the EULA, etc.), and those R/R screens were where I also spotted the Arabic writing this time.
If this is the Jon Roberts example map for the Island Chain issue, I haven't had any issues scrolling the tool lists, although I did notice that map doesn't have Effects loaded on opening, which is a little unusual nowadays.
The other two example maps (Outer Hebrides and The Shining Pearls) were also fine for scrolling the tool lists. I did notice that I didn't have to scroll down the list to reach the new island chain drawing tools though, as the "All map drawing tools" pane opens already at the end of the list.
