I’d say spotlights file search interface isn’t that great but the finder’s own file search (I presume uses the same md database) seems pretty good to me.

Actually it does, which surprises me. That’s more of a Windowsism where you select a subject and then select a verb to apply. The Mac interface has from the beginning been more about direct manipulation. I.e: when you want to move something you just grab it and move it where you want to be.

In that case am really surprised Finder still doesn't support dual pane. Wouldn't this philosophy directly benefit?

You can open a new window...

Which isn't equivalent to dual-pane, especially considering macOS doesn't even support proper window snapping out of the box.

I mean, the Mac did invent copy and paste!
