Fair point. I don’t use a desktop at all because I use a tiling window manager.
When I worked at a Linux distro (endlessos.com) they had modified Gnome to have a universal search bar on the desktop. It was targeted at a different group of users than me, but it seemed to make sense based on that group.
Hopefully Gnome does sufficient user testing to deliver a useful experience to some significant group.

Most widgets I see on my phone are things like calendars or counters, which on a desktop OS should go in the same space as running programs.
