I think their vision is solid.
I just think there are gaps in following their vision. Wheres the “create new empty file”? Where’s the “open folder in terminal”?
Why do I need to install bunch of bloatware to change more than 2 options?
Gnome is about deliberate lack of features. Blank windows with the few existing UI elements crammed into the top bar and a hamburger menu with nothing in it because Gnome and its associated software are not intended to be used for anything.

On my Gnome Files, there is option to “Open in terminal” and create new files (from templates, which were set up by default on my distro). All by default without any extensions or anything.
Conclusion: the clear vision that Gnome devs have is obviously wrong.
It’s a non-profit, open source project.
If you don’t like it, just ignore it.
It’s not a commercial project where market share is important.
The only defense of Gnome: It’s not mandatory.
Except they also do GTK, which still manages to leak outside their 9 foot thick steel and concrete containment vessel.
