Another idea to maybe include in the goal:

The HIG and the Wiki pages seem to be enough for now.

The window decorations in the two images are not the same.
There is no workflow that fits all, but we can make educated guesses about the workflow that fits most (this is the point of defaults, after all). As I mentioned in the description, I think the reason why this makes sense is because most users today have an app-based workflow moreso than a window-based workflow. This is due to the changing nature of how apps work today: more and more are single-window apps, with integrated tabbing features for working with multiple documents/views/emails/whatevers. I'll admit that this is a bit of an educated guess on my part, but it's based on observations of the functioning of apps used by me and others I know, and I think it's notable that every other platform has switched to a Dock-style paradigm. Clearly they all thought there was some advantage.

Why do we insist on changing the default to look like XYZ instead of promoting and improve T11743 ?

It doesn't auto-hide by default in macOS. I decided to make it span the full width of the screen because not doing this is IMO one of the dumbest parts of that macOS dock, because it pointlessly wastes the bottom-left-most and bottom-right-most pixels, which are two of the four easiest to click pixels in the whole screen.
I'd also consider to make the global theme also change plasma theme, color scheme or even application style so that it switches to a even more similiar interface. If Cupertino global theme switched to a light version of https://store.kde.org/p/1252328/, that would be, well, extraordinary. In such case, I'd also consider the addition of a Fluent theme. Still, I can see why this would be much harder.

At least for IDEs vertical tabs seem to be the usual pattern use.

Something, we might at least consider: Is this an appropriate phase of the plasma 5 life cycle for this?
(I assume this is not a goal for a future plasma6?)
