My guess is people don't organise their folders well and then struggle to navigate and search properly. Which shouldn't mean the rest should get punished, but here we are.
Which effectively mean that a modern iPhone probably has 100x the computing power of a 10 year old laptop and a 100th of the utility, because it’s based on this limited philosophy.
What a waste.
Yup. We've all seen someone navigate a desktop with hundreds of icons spanning pictures, powerpoints, web links, applications, etc...
