Simple, most other window management paradigms are terrible. The author agrees: > On a laptop screen or normal-sized desktop monitor, I end up putting these different windows on different macOS spaces, but then half the time I swipe the wrong direction to switch spaces and end up going to the wrong space. By the time I get to the correct space my short-term memory is blown and I’ve forgotten what I was doing. I've never had this issue on a tiler. You get 10 (maybe 20) screens accessible with a single key combo. You can thoughtlessly toggle back and forth between any two as fast as you can blink. "Swiping" between a few desktops sounds terrible by comparison. I'm do embedded development, PCB CAD, some graphic design and manage a fleet of servers all from a single 10" laptop screen thanks to tiling. Unless you were asking how a 720p screen can have more real estate than a 4K screen? 4K is 3840x2160 or 8.3M pixels. 1280x720 is 0.92M pixels. So with 10 virtual desktops the 720p screen gives you 9.2M pixels. Slightly more than a 4K screen. You also get the benefit of not having to move your eyes or head from one corner of the screen to the other. What you are working on is always front and center.
