Oh, I absolutely agree! But as I said, I know what my files are for, and my computer does not. So until we get some incredible AI that not only understands the context of every file but can also use that context to make perfect organizational decisions, I expect to be the one responsible for grouping my data.
To be clear, I don't think directory hierarchies are necessarily the be-all end-all of digital organization. For example, I like the idea of organizing based on tags, because a lot of documents rightly belong in more than one category. However, I expect I'll need to be the one who sets the tags.
iOS's solution does work better on mobile than on desktop (and iPad), although I do run into problems on my iPhone.
