I don’t think you should be forced to but the things you just listed totally change the way you view and interact with a device, so switching to a different device isn’t really all that different an experience than docking the one you’re currently on.
It’s not that it can’t be done, or shouldn’t be done, but to me the benefits feel very minor. If I’m reading an email on my phone and want to answer on my laptop it’s already exceedingly easy to do so. Docking a device instead of using a different one doesn’t really change that equation.
