So this is what I hear you saying.....
Linus is a kernel developer and not a UI developer. Thus, his opinion
does not matter.
Since Linus is not a UI developer, he is only an end user. Thus, the
opinions of end users don't matter.

I think his opinion matters as much as anyone else (and I gather that in
the eyes of Gnome developers, not so much).
You know my feelings as I too am a KDE 4 survivor ;-) To make an omelet,
you have to break some eggs. I think there is a core of long time Linux
users who were upset because their familiar interface changed. Such is
progress.
