My question is pretty simple - Why?

Why ArcGIS Pro?  I can't find anything to like about this application.  The flat GUI makes everything look like background.  The app crashes with alarming regularity.  The interface is worlds away from that of ArcGIS.  Why?   And as with previous major releases it almost seems that the development team had no contact with the developers of ArcGIS desktop.  One might think that the radical changes are a deliberate attempt to force users into ESRI training programs for a hefty fee.

Bottom line - not at all happy with Pro.

Thank you for the quick answer, Kory! I look forward to trying out ArcGIS Pro, just haven't been able to justify it yet because I couldn't test the features I use the most

It's so frustrating...

For me, the UI is anything but "intuitive", as they say. It probably is for someone who starts or for someone that "works" on Pro for fun, or for small queries AND comes with some knowledge of MO tools. But after one worked for decades with his/ her personalized ribbon, with all the useful shortcut buttons, I feel like I'm learning to use a new software... Every day I have 10 web-browser tabs with questions "where is this /that in Pro"...
