Real emacs users know how to customise it (i.e. get rid of whatever UI
features they don't like)! :-)

You really don't want 20.7 -- it's far too buggy to keep, especially for
a system that's trying to support such a wide variety of platforms.  You
probably don't want 19.34 either -- it's too unsupportable when using
modern versions of add-ons like GNUS.
