It's not finished yet. Maybe they will eliminate the windows 7-style desktop you saw before the end. Chill ouuuuut.
But this isn't starting off on the right foot
Where did you expect them to start from? Build the kernel from scratch?

That actually wouldn't be a bad idea. As someone pointed out, I also feel that filesystem hierarchy, window frames and the desktop metaphor is now outdated and overly stretched. Imho, they would be better come out with a whole new OS with no backwards compatibility, while keeping developing windows for the time necessary (10-15 years) to allow most of its users and software a 'transition' to the new system.
If they don't do it, someone else will do.
