It's low cpu/memory usage on my 2 GB RAM laptop with a Celeron processor. (A Chromebook converted to Linux.)
It overloads a ton of meta keys for moving windows around, moving between workspaces, etc. Very natural once you get used to it on my small keyboard, small 13" screen, and 1366x768 resolution.
And once again Canonical is like... f it... after telling us Unity was the new thing and everyone had to get used to it... f it... let's go back.
Even if Unity was somehow worse, I still would have had more respect for them if they had stuck with their original decision. Now they basically look like they have no idea what they're doing and when anyone asks, they'll give bullshit answers they won't stand by in a year or two. All their arguments are just PR speak for "whatever I want right now."
Going back to Gnome proves to me that there is no grand design behind their decisions. Just hubris and condescension.

On the other hand, it's been six years. That's quite a run (in contrast, gnome 2 switched to gnome 3 only after about 4 years), and considering that Ubuntu as a company is explicitly pivoting to focus on the GUI-less target (pretty much the idea of GNU on the Desktop taking over the world is quite dead, and if Ubuntu goes public, they'll want to focus on what makes money), it's quite expected.
