You do agree, i (and almost all KDE developers) don't from the very simple reason - people are not starting to use Linux as their first OS, they are coming from Windows world and most of them simply don't want to learn everything from scratch - and thats why there's KDE (and there's GNOME - a thing which if Mr. RMS would have read my private email to him, wouldn't exist). Most people I know, don't want to learn everything from scratch.
