This all is a really minor point, of course, hardly worth attention,
if there was not the persistent issue of user interface changes
implemented seemingly in pursuit of a grand artistic mission, but with
very little thought of how the thing is actually going to be used by
the broader public.

 That's not fair or correct, the Gnome developers put a great deal of thought into the hundreds of decisions they make. The evolution of Gnome 3 throughout its 6 releases also shows that they take user feedback quite seriously.
