Try watching somebody with Parkinson's try to use either of them and
you'll understand. Or, consider somebody like me who wants certain
programs to be on certain workspaces and doesn't want to have go guess
where the DE decided to put them.
It is certainly possible to have fixed number of workspaces in GNOME 3 and
this has become incrementally easier to tweak in Fedora 18.
gnome-tweak-tool has a clear option to do that. Also you can install the
following extension to determine which app gets launched automatically in
which specific workspace.
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/16/auto-move-windows/
Install this extension and use gnome-shell-extension-prefs GUI to configure
it or you can do it via the command line if you want to script this
