I think you're confusing on-screen interruption with cognitive interruption.

The fact that I have to switch my cognitive focus from working on a
document, say, to renaming the workspace is just as big as interruption
as renaming it with a mouse and keyboard.

Just because the screen components are relatively unchanged does not
mean that this is a cost-free operation.
