Ok but do you use the Alt Tab shortcut? or Do you go, every time, through the Overview?

I just ask the question because in my case. My left hands is never close or ready to make a keyboard trick like Alt +Tab. I always hold  somethings like  a Donut's, a paper, a  Manuel, a piece of my computer in my left hand.

Also, in many situation, the desk configuration puts the keyboard far from you.
If you do a presentation, if you watch a movie on your video-projector, or whatever your configurations.

I also prefer to not use the overview when I am working. I am French, I have a little brain and when I enter in the overview, the desktop animation distracts my thoughts, and I didn't remember why am I doing here.
If by chance I remember I need to find the good application behind all the open desktops. And When I finally found it, I really don't remember what I have to do with it.
I think I am a fish.

It's the same problem with e-ink, some of the device need to display a black page before the new one. With this little black flash your mind is distracted and you loose the meaning of the text

"The refresh of an eInk page creates a black flash and can create temporary "ghosting" effect which can be annoying to some people." (It's me!!!)

I have no doubt that we will find a good diplomatic solution with an extension or a option to enable. But you have to understand that some of us really need that.

I already have said in this list, that the way of handling application
is the main reason for me to switch from KDE to Gnome-Shell. I totally
agree with Tomasz. What I just expect is that this way of handling
applications will remain in the future.

I agree with Tomasz, Hernan, and Stephan. If I just want to quickly switch to the app I just used, I alt-tab. Otherwise, I use the overview.
