Where do you get the confidence from? Because GNOME frequently broke workflows in the past. They removed status and desktop icons, the window titles in the overview vanished, Evince lost some feature with its latest redesign (which I can't remember right now what it was exactly), Nautilus lost its two pane mode, compact view and type-ahead search, which was replaced with a slower full-blown recursive search, ...
These kind of disturbances caused me to move to a much more personally tailored desktop and I can't remember it breaking once in like 5 years and certainly not to the extend the GNOME desktop breaks in almost every release.
