Yeah, but i think any programmable system should allow low level constructs if the high level constructs are not enough.
iirc this caused serious problems with wine because the API of windows requires setting coordinates.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So, in short: Not the program devs decide where and how windows are presented to you, you decide. Which I very much love.
Same. I briefly had an M4 Mac Mini and one of the things I instantly missed about Linux was Wayland.
I always want new windows to open on the middle of the screen I am currently working on, but on Windows and MacOS they just go wherever they want.
And I love the 100% predictability of where windows will open: Either on the workspace I explicitly configured, out of my sight, or to the right/below the currently focused container. And the settings for that are always in the same place, ~/.config/sway/
