For me it was exactly the other way around with Gnome, within minutes I was getting frustrated because I couldn't find any of the more detailed options, everything was hidden. I switched to KDE and was immediately relieved to see that almost everything I could ever wish for was right there.
I _do_ agree that certain things are not always origanized ina logical way and the Kontrol Center is a good example of that. I like the way it works but there are quite a number of options in places that wouldn't expect.
