Regular users are expected and intended to use the official packages that come 
with the distro.

Do you see any comparable distros doing that? Like any other serious major 
distro openSUSE is not a rolling release distro. Haven't you been using 
openSUSE long enough to know about the update policies?

And understand that kde.org releasing a bunch of tarballs with millions of 
lines of code and hundreds of different components, doesn't magically turn 
into stable, polished, themed, patched rpm packages for openSUSE that 
integrate nicely with the distro. What the heck do you think the kde-team is 
doing all day if it were that easy?
