I agree with the analogy, but there are more than two babies and only 
the two oldest and biggest ones are on life support (Gnome and KDE).  
The other children like XFDE are gaining weight because their parents 
are feeding them well.

In the attempt to gain users, you actually lost quite a few.  Not 
explaining why changes are being made in a user-centric universe is 
bad.  Doing so AFTER said users say they don't want the changes is 
asinine.  However, we all know the results.  I've heard of no thundering 
requests for change from Windows to Linux, at least not yet.
