Google maps autocomplete api v3 suddenly stopped working

So I was surprises to find after changing no code at all that the Google Maps auto-complete API suddenly stopped working. I logged out the results to see what was happening.

I had previously been getting a lat lng from an auto-completed address as follows:

new google.maps.LatLng(from_autocomplete.getPlace().geometry.location.d, from_autocomplete.getPlace().geometry.location.e);

the d and e being the lat and lng coords. I found the error to be that the response from the autocomplete object (autocomplete.getPlace().geometry.location) is now:

k: 53.002668, A: -2.179403999999977

Why would the d and e suddenly change to a K and A? It had been working for weeks and then this changed without notice.

You used properties of internal object structure which can change any time.

geometry is google.maps.places.PlaceGeometry type with property location which is a google.maps.LatLng class. You can get latitude and longitude using officially supported lat() and lng() methods.
