Off the top of my head: * Rosetta (for PPC) * Apple Mail in Mavericks cannot do any searching without spotlight (among other bugs) * Mavericks Messages keeps records of every chat you’ve had, the option to explicitly “close” can cause deletion when set but previously iChat didn’t try to horde data like this * Gatekeeper makes you jump through hoops to install from un-"identified developers” ($)
You can decide how negative these issues are overall (I only use Mavericks on the go, when I’m not really using the computer), and I’m sure there are further reasons.
