Lobotomizing Gnome
Good observation.
Turning off extensions is where OP lost me. In the last year, the single biggest quality of life improvement for me has been discovering the Argos[0] extension, which basically lets you put whatever text/menus you want in the top bar by writing scripts that print to stdout. To save space, I hid the dock (I use [1] as a replacement alt-tab), so the top bar is the only piece of screen that isn't OS chrome.
On my top bar right now I have the time in four time zones (including the ever-important UTC to save a mental calculation when logging at logs), the name of the current Wifi access point, and some VPN details gleaned using a combination of ip r, ping, nc, and curl. Another extension shows free RAM. I look at them dozens of times a day.

The curse of being good in IT
I’ve heard this called “the defaults lifestyle” on the Software Defined Talk podcast. I’m forever locked out of nirvana because I have an iPhone but not a Mac, but that’s fine.
Occasionally plugins are worth the expense though. I finally discovered Argos[0] and I’m using it to show time in UTC and a couple other time zones. Super handy.
But if I try some new software and find that I have to tweak it a bunch to make it usable, that means the devs have different aesthetics and I should probably try something else.

Cycle window between monitors?
You can try Custom Hot Corners - Extended extension, the latest repository version can do that, I've just added this action. You don't have to use hot corners and mouse options at all, you can only use Keyboard page of the Settings window and set your keyboard shortcuts for actions you are interested in. CHC-E can do many useful things.

I am disappointed that I cannot move windows into workspaces in activities overlay view with shortcuts such as 'Super + Pg Up/Down' or 'Ctrl + Alt + {arrow keys}'
I recently added actions for moving windows to adjacent workspaces to the CHC-E extension. It allows to register global keaboard shortcuts which work even in the overview. In addition CHC-E can move the window to the workspace which yet doesn't exist, if you try to move it in front of first workspace. It can also move all windows of the same application from the given workspace to another and also move them to newly created workspace in chosen direction.
