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.

Configurability is the answer. Some people like it some don't, just have a setting to turn it off and it's fine
Personally I don't see much point in it as I just use the three finger swipe anyway, too much effort to mouse up to the top left and click it then navigate a GUI compared to just swiping left and right
Hmm, I wouldn't like having such a setting cluttering up my settings panel. Maybe they could allow the user to configure whether they want such a setting?
You'd need a setting to decide whether you wanted that configuration file too though, I'm not sure if I'd want it taking up space on my disk
