This may come as a surprise to you, but the vast majority of users absolutely hate it when their software changes.
They don't want all new interfaces with all new buttons and options and menus.
People get used to their workflows and they like them. They use their software to do something. The software itself is not the goal (gaming excepted).
I'm not suggesting that things should never be gussied up, or streamlined or made more efficient from a UX perspective, but so many software shops change just to change and "stay fresh".
