But it's the same desktop, menus, windows, icons thing with nothing fancy tacked on pretty much. Right?

Not quite. The crystal icon set is not, to my knowledge, the default in any GNOME version though it was in some KDE3 releases. The menus and window design of EDE are very Win98, while those of GNOME are slightly different depending upon the Metacity theme in use. EDE has a few other tweaks and add-ons, but it lacks the MATE/GNOME2 plugin ecosystem.
