All new stuff puts my back up a bit - until I get used to it.  I quite like it
now.  It is drifting the windoze way, I hate sticky menus and grey!  The
internet stuff is a waste of space and can cause problems to those of us who
are set in our ways.  

I don't know about reformatting?  

It is very stable and crashes are less frequent and less intense.   

I would do it, 8.1 promises even more.
