I'm with your here. The whole purpose of virtual desktops is to have more...desktops. No need to turn your head...just a flick of the fingers.

Yep. They are great. Some of the better ones allow for moving a window to another desktop easily too. Perfect for that, "but I need this for a minute" type use cases.

There is a trend toward minimalism going on. I'm not sure it's to our benefit.
