I don't think KDE really goes for simplicity... I could imagine they go for intuitive, though. I mean, take simplicity too far, and you get Gnome 3 ;)

(Ok, Ok, I'm typing this from Gnome 3, tweaked enough to look like Gnome 2, so I guess, it's not sooo... bad)

It's fun to take a particular set of qualities to the extreme and see what happens, but I think most DE's look for a nice balance.

Oh, to make up for the OT post - it is nice to see more DE's popping up (at least into my awareness..). And, while I tried KDE and just got annoyed with random stuff, the couple times I used QT it seemed quite nice (once I figured out how to debug the signal & slots macro stuff :D), and I'm glad to see a DE out there using it!

Especially a lightweight one! KDE is fun, but usually ends up bugging me with some random part that hogs the CPU (changes depending on the release, I've tried an old 3, and whatever Kubuntu ran a year or so ago)
