Regardless of the reasons, I'm quite happy with Gnome 3 as my daily driver. Once I understood the design philosophy of the /Shell/ aspect of /Gnome Shell/, the friction disappeared. The idea is that Gnome 3 can (should) be a keyboard-centric UI for most tasks whereas Gnome 2 and other similar UI's were/are arguably mouse-centric. For me, it's much faster to navigate using hotkeys and shortcuts than mouse/trackpad movements.
