The complexity you denigrate in KDE is the result of its massive configurability. The average joe might find it offputting, but I like being able to completely control my environment. I suppose that mirrors Linux in general.
If Linux had to be dumbed-down to make it a generally acceptable desktop environment, something else would invariably arise in its niche. I think things are just fine as is with MacOS as Unix for the masses, and Linux as unix for hackers.

Do not misunderstand me, I do not want to denigrate anything, as I appreciate the potential of configurability, but this is not the average case of a public employee.
