The important thing is that innovation is happening! GNOME 3 is targeted toward tablets, so it isn't surprising that it doesn't work as well (for some people) for existing computing tasks. Anyway, options are simply good. One person's particular preferences aren't really that significant; although in this case, they may make the GNOME people try harder to fix the usability problems they've now created, which in the end is a very good thing. As an aside, I think a GNOME 2 fork would actually be interesting. Keep the competition alive.
