I disgree.

With F14/gnome2 you clicked on "Applications", then moved the mouse down 
the menu and navigated through the submenues by hovering the cursor over 
them. When doing so, you were presented tooltips outlining the purpose 
of the apps. All this required the mouse/trackpad to move for only very 
small distances.

With F15/gnome3 you are presented a pane of icons with 
non-self-explanatory names, stretched over many screen, no tooltips, etc.
The distances a mouse had to move are much longer than they used to be.

The symbol-grounding issues (Which group might the app I am searching 
for be classified under?) is basically the same in both approaches.
