Not necessarily. The simplest systems are the most intuitive, but they ultimately limit the power of the user to do a wider scope of things that he/she might want to do.
Really, you want your "intuitiveness" to scale inversely with the scope of things the system can do.
If you have a large system, it doesn't need to be intuitive, but it needs to be conceptually coherent---that is, it needs to limit accidental complexity.
I think it's accurate to say that good Linux distros follow these principles.

This is not necessarily right. Take for instance a pen.
A pen is 100% intuitive and can do exactly 1 thing.
What's your point?
