Why not give the choice? If I have to be told to do so because someone thinks 
the majority wants it so, I have Windows or Mac OS X

No. At least that's not what I see when I read my mailing lists.

They don't do it the right way (I mean instead of tempting us to make the move

I can't remember 3.2 exactly, but I don't agree, at least when it comes to the

not working for me, KDE 4 is not working for me and remains on the test 
partition
