We already do split the world, if you think about it. Despite looking and behaving alike, servers and workstations/phones/etc. diverge quite dramatically. You manage them differently, interact with them differently, use them for different purposes, and so on. Every hacker can relate to this: "don't use root for day-to-day work." Well, do I need root on my workstation? Maybe not. Do I need root on my server? Yes. I think split world is livable if that divergence is embraced. Running a Xeon server as a workstation is something a lot of developers do. As clients get more locked down, it's probably the direction we'll have to go, and really differentiating what makes a "server" from a "client".
