Yeah I definitely understand the value of the stateless desktop.

I do think that, for example, the fact that browsers hold history is generally a useful thing, though, right? For me it's less about persisting the application state itself as it is about holding onto metadata for later inspection.



Browser history is state done right because it's not hidden. There's a top-level "History" menu with lots of tools for managing the history.
