thanks for the excellent description... but the question was how it's different from profiles, which is used for isolation and settings change. what you described is still nothing more than moving windows around.
I don't know what to say to that. I just described 5 or so features that are objectively more than simply "moving windows around".
Maybe it's because I wasn't clear that many of those features work on per workspace basis - transient tabs (unique to each workspace), unique folder organization features (customized for each workspace), built in split screen (again - with custom arrangements per workspace), hotkey switching between workspaces, different color theme per workspace (so it's easy to know which workspace I'm in, or select another window quickly with Mission Control).
Then there's the fact that profiles are a separate thing from workspaces so you can mix and match profiles to workspaces according to your needs. So you can have three workspace and have two share a single profile.
If those features aren't compelling to you that's fine. Just say so. But please comment constructively or not at all. I genuinely have no interest in trying to "sell" anyone on this workflow. I was just answering the question.

Ok, even if that were true (it objectively isn't), I like wrangling less windows. How's that? Good enough for you? Why would I want four windows open, when I can have one or two (did I mention that I have ADHD)?
If it helps, you can think of workspaces like another level of tabs. Tabs are objectively good right? Yet everything you can do with a tab can be done with a window. Right?
