Can't say if copying features from M$ means simplification. Rather after 
working on KDE for some time, when I had to move o M$ platforms, I 
found them extremely complex, without any sense of UI.  All that 
matters is what you are used to. 

A person whose first exposure to computers is Linux, will definitely 
find M$ extremely complex to use as it does not let the user control 
things.
