There was a time, long ago (5 years is an eternity in terms of computer development, and this, computer game development), when everybody shouted "NERF KM!"--except for KM drivers, of course--and nobody shouted "NERF UK!" That was when there was no such thing as shared exp, no such thing as Great Battle, and people had to actually learn how to play their ships in order to level.
KM hasn't changed, really. The game has changed around it, such that its advantages are much less apparent and its disadvantages much more apparent. But to watch a skilled player in a KM ship is still a beautiful thing to behold.
