As a designer, I completely agree with this. You just don't sacrifice usability. Things need to be accessible with as few clicks as possible. Breaking the site into 4 separate sections is terrible design.
2.0 was great for casually visiting and getting everything you need quickly. This is burdensome. There needs to be a way to give people access to everything they want on one page. Maybe make it customizable for people with accounts, giving them the option to add what types of information they want displayed when they first visit the site.
I'll give it some time to adjust, but so far I really don't like it.
