I disagree. Look at what the GNOME developers did with Gnome-Shell. That was more of a radical change than Unity imho and was equally divisive by "forcing a viewpoint on the world". There are also lots of others doing new and interesting things like KDE with Plasma Active for tablets (on real devices soon via Vivaldi) and Mozilla with the already commercially backed Boot2Gecko project in the mobile space.
