KDE is actually hard at work to fix these problems and make sure programs have e.g. better defaults, are more consistent, and easier for new users (see for example the KHamburgerMenu widget, which even gives users a choice if they prefer an old fashioned menu). The core principle of the KDE HIG is "simple by default, powerful when needed": https://develop.kde.org/hig/

The difference is that KDE prefers doing this incrementally, which takes longer especially outside of core apps like Konsole and Dolphin, but it also prevents clusterfucks like the gnome-terminal vs gnome-console situation, and reduces churn in general.
