Uh, if there's anything we're "knocking off", it's upstream KDE, and your own 
first sentence also hints at that. Our KDE look&feel is very close to the 
upstream defaults, unlike some other distributions which heavily customize 
their KDE. There are times when it wasn't, but in those times, it looked a lot 
more like the "GNOME knockoff" you're painting it to be than it does now!

Uh, if our KDE is a GNOME knockoff, then why does GNOME fit your needs and KDE 
doesn't? Sounds like they're actually different enough for you to prefer GNOME.
