I agree, there might not be a lot of new meat compared to eye-candy in iOS 7, but that is always the case with any new OS. Although there was lots of smoke, mirror, and snake oil in the selling of it. As with all thing technology.
As far as ugly, that is a personal opinion. Slow, where? Bugs, other than the opening from Control Panel (but most don't lock their iPhone so that only affects a few), what?
If you have flashing on the home screen, you have a defective iPhone, or possibly a bad install. My iPhone 4S is not flashing with iOS 7.
"technology-for-its-own-sake" is again a personal opinion that varies by how you use your iPhone. (Yeap, more eye-candy.) What may be nothing to you, could make a big difference for someone else with a different work flow or need.
An example, I asked a friend who got a new iPhone, and told him he did not need the screen protector. I came back to him and said he was probably better off with a screen protector, since is is a tile setter and works with lots of grout and mortar that could possibly scratch the screen. He uses it differently than I do.
And Control Panel is nothing new, other than gathering all those existing functions into one location, making it more useful.
My biggest issues relate to changes in listening to audiobooks in Music.app, the poor visibility of Timer in Clock.app, and a couple of other visibility issues. None of them deal killers at the moment, and they will probably be addressed. Other than that, I don't see any big whoop.

I've been through lots of upgrades on iOS and other platforms. There is often a learning curve.
iOS7 fails in my mind because 1. it is ugly 2. it is slow 3. there are bugs (the flashing home screen being one of the most intrusive) and 4. time and space is chewed up with silly, less useful "technology-for-its-own-sake" like the new view of tabs in Safari.
My objections have nothing to do with it being different and everything to do with it being less useful than iOS6.
I do like the control panel.
