I think everyone is aware that it's a different paradigm. It was introduced in the 80s as a way to have floating windows for the application and reuse the same tool windows for e.g. Photoshop without a parent window. But now even Photoshop has a parenting window. Almost everyone just maximises all their applications since Mac window management doesn't work. And everyone else has to install Spectacle or Rectangle[1]
I am attacking the paradigm. It has had its time. It is done. It should leave.
What's the alternative? If cmd-tab switched windows, my own workflow would be a nightmare. The list of all windows when switching would be unmanageably large and I'd have to manually raise several windows after switching.
My preference would be to keep it as is but have window switching work like app switching. The separate order in which the two cycle is a pain.
