Gesture based Window management has been around on Macs since early versions of OSX and is feature that Microsoft has attempted to copy, poorly.
> An interesting addition is the ability to use a three finger swipe up gesture to activate the new Task View feature of Windows 10. Not only does Task View look like OS X’s Mission Control (Exposé) feature, the three finger swipe up is the same gesture. Microsoft is also borrowing the three finger swipe left and right to activate switching between apps

It sounds like you aren't quite familiar with how a Mac works.

We don't discuss who was the first.

Another "you're holding it wrong" moment. Windows has better window management even from gestures perspective. Proof me wrong.
On Windows it's 4-finger swipe left/right but it's not possible to switch between apps on macOS via gestures without 3-rd party apps. That's why I didn't get that 'compromise on UX' statement. MacOS gesture support is poorer compared to Windows (at least for my workflow) but from the hardware side Mac's Trackpad is superior.
