But to declare that no one should have the option because you don't personally find value in it - is just pure arrogance.
Maybe you don't understand how software development works, but resources are finite, and if there's a list of 10 features that a poll of the customer base would like to see, then you can expect that only 6 or so might make it into the product. Given that, it's very unfortunate that attention is being diverted away from worthwhile, modern feature requests in favour of making the OS look dated and more visually cluttered.
