A decision that also lightly favors business as the "hide desktop" button has a general reputation as the "uh oh, the boss is coming!" button. Definitely not their first purpose here, but a "nice" side benefit for the pro-enshittification crowd.

Does it? My boss is like 70 and he would know something was up instantly if I was just staring at the desktop.

Anyone worth their salt knows win+D tbh. The button is unnecessary
