Is a design overhaul a failure if you need to offer a toggle?

Iterative UX design is a staple of the modern web and every few years it seems like our favourite services get a substantial UI update. I've noticed that nearly every time a big UX update comes out, a toggle to switch between the old design and new is included or even demanded for by users. So, do you think a UX redesign that needs a toggle is a failure, or are users always going to want the old version back for a while after launch? Is a staged rollout or beta access the best way to slowly introduce such an update?
