If you think about productivity, you can't help but think that having the default state of your computer being an image with a few icons on it is less than stellar. For opening files, it will never be tidy enough to give you access to all you need, you need a launcher or a folder structure, meaning the desktop is bad at this. For opening apps, having visual shortcuts on the desktop is a duplicate of whatever panel or launcher you have.

I also think the suggestions in this videos are shitty and impractical.

He's dreaming about something that could not be implemented. And even if implemented, is just cluncky and unusable.

I just ignored this video. And actually, most of his videos I'm ignoring as well.
