Not really, I find the blender workflow is still very similar to the old 1.7, fits on a floppy disk, days. It's the same modal editor with a million hotkeys and dense packed stacked dialogs, the most intrusive workflow change was when they swapped the default mouse keys. Not to say the blender project has not done amazing work making things more discoverable. But as a occasional blender user from the sgi 1.X days. I suspect "the complete 3.0 overhaul making blender more standard" was more marketing than anything else. Blender had got a reputation has being hard to learn(all 3d programs are hard to learn). So while they did do a lot of work on the UI and it is much better, mainly it was loudly saying "we made the UI easier" and everybody sort of went along with it.
