Only the raid blessings are an upgrade. The rest, especially the vaunted talent review, are sidegrades and downgrades. The talent trees didn't really get changed, just shuffled. Useless talents were replaced by other useless talents, and many useful talents were simply moved deeper into the trees as junk was weeded out of the deep areas and added liberally to the top.
The fact is, many paladin specs with the new talents are going to have basically the same capabilities as before, with the same number of points in each tree, just with a few less bonuses. Instead of making Holy past 20 useful, they simply kicked all the good holy talents down one tier and added junk to the top.
