It seems you missed the point.
Competition is Good (tm).
I highly appreciate recent GNOME developement, as it also helps other 
environemnts to become better.
This also means that it doesn't matter wether "70% of people hate the 
GNOME-direction", or it's just 10%.
Let GNOME develop on its own. There are a few libraries inspired by GNOME 
development which can be useful for other projects too.
Even if GNOME completly fails, we would still use some of its libs.
