     The gray bordering of meaningful thickness that existed around all windows was *important*. The reduction in cognitive burden was significant. YOu only have to look at a screenshot from that era and feel the calmness hit you vs the Mac screen you were just looking at to notice the difference.

     The borders mean you don't have to use part of your attention to keep the rest of what's going on at-bay.
