Orange is simply the new main colour for the theme, and has been for N810WME as well. It is part of the identity. You could combine it with black background white foreground or the other way around. To incorporate the theme better with the rest of maemo.org white (grey rather) background with black foreground makes a lot of sense.
Not everyone is less here becaue of new theme. Liking or disliking a new interface does not mean the user finds the new interface better or worse; so is not a reference to quality. Coming less than with the old interface is not necessarily a good or bad thing either. So lets not draw quick conclusions from polls.
Personally, I think the new interface is very good, but it will take me some time to get used to. I'm also less here because 1) I have less free time 2) I gave away my N810 (replaced by Nokia E71 & Apple ipod touch 2nd gen) 3) I'm patiently waiting for a new Maemo based device from Nokia!

It was as I predicted though, the two classic themes became options and the issue was solved.

In fact, on the PC (although not on the Tablet), I primarily use (by choice!) the default theme.
