Different workflow, macOS does not expect you to snap windows. I'm not 100% familiar with the macOS workflow, but I know it's different.

That's the issue. IMHO. A desktop environment should not dictate how the user use it. That's just stupid.

I like being given a workflow designed by UX engineers, it means I don't have to think about it and I can just do my work instead of figuring out the best workflow.

My opinion is that computers should stay out of the way as much as possible. It's an appliance.

And that's perfectly fine, and probably the most sensible thing ad well. However. The user should have the option to do whatever they want to.

Exactly! And that's not possible if you have to fight it every time you use it.

I agree, user choice is important, which is why I use Linux :) (GNOME)
