I am talking about the Split View mode described at https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204948

Huh. Well look at that. It's apparently hard to find, and it does appear that you're limited to splitting a "fullscreen" view - i.e., no menu bar, dock, or other windows - but it's better than nothing.

Yeah — not to mention the lack of keyboard controls like Windows 10. Sigh!

spectacle provides these features. But I agree, it should be part of the OS's UX

Since finding out about Spectacle, I don't even really make use of BTT at all anymore, even though it is still installed and running...

If you option-click the green dot, the window will resize in the “classic” way.
It has multiple desktop spaces, fullscreen mode, and "expose". It used to be that clicking the green dot on a window expanded it in developer-defined ways that were often unpredictable, but that got replaced with fullscreen mode.
