OK, sorry, now I understand the problem!
If this is what you mean by "clutter" it is
very poor engineering indeed! Unbelievable -
you should mail the developers and tell them!

*Yes* you should definitely change it!

I'd do it like this: Do a grep for any
reference to .emacs.d in the spacemacs source
and instalation scripts, Makefiles etc. If it
is a variable somewhere, change it, to
.spacemacs.d - and if it isn't, change
every occurence.

Then you might need to tell spacemacs to look
there, as well.
