I get the motivation behind it, but I have to agree with you. I tried virtual desktops several times back when I used Linux desktops and the habit never stuck. What's more important to me is being able to easily switch between apps. Maybe there was a time where virtual desktops made more sense, but so many apps use tabs now that VDs seem pointless.
