I like the physical home button (as opposed to Android's capacitive buttons), but I do agree that it's way too overloaded with functionality. Single click. Double click. Click and hold. App switching is a chore and takes way longer than it should to complete a task. However, more buttons is not the answer. iOS needs WebOS's multitasking gestures badly.

for the record, there are plenty of android phones that use real physical buttons for those 4 buttons at the bottom of the android screen. using capacitive buttons is a manufacturer choice.
