I use the application dashboard 100% of the time on all of my laptops. I love it. You're definitely being over dramatic and I think you're comparing to Windows to try to achieve an emotional reaction due to the anti Windows attitude some Linux uses have.
The Dashboard is nothing like the Windows8 menu. Tiles vs icons for one. Different organisation schemes. The only thing the two have in common is that they're both fullscreens but even then, if you must compare to Windows, the Application Dashboard is still more like the Windows10 tablet mode menu which scrolls vertically like the Dashboard unlike Windows8.
If you want a much more comparable menu thn compare the Dashboard with Gnome's activities menu. In my opinion those are very similar...
You describe KDE menus as cluky though. Every program is organised into relevant menus in sane locations (most of the time). While comparing to Gnome, look at it's menu if you want see cluky. All the programs are just mushed into one big section. The Application Dashboard took Gnome's concept and did it better in my opinion.
Clunkyness and Windowsy don't seems like valid statements to me.
