I think, sometimes, when you're selling a product (rather than releasing
it as open source) there's pressure to change SOMETHING because it has
to be different in order to separate it from the earlier version. The

the software and only add features people really want. That's the way to
NOT get bloatware.

Gnome, in general, has suffered from the "change for change sake" issue. But
they're the exception, not the rule.
