Not having a facebook account, I can't read that.  My own opinion is that if 
you don't want a folderview it's simple to delete it, whereas if the desktop 
is empty and you do want one it's less obvious how to get one - for someone 
new to plasma, I mean.  Of course that doesn't allow for those that want the 
desktop to *be* a folderview :-) but that's another story.
