I agree completely with the sentiment, but I would suggest that first giving the modern start page a go is worth it. Everyone I know that has given a bit of thought as to how to set that up to suit their workflow (perhaps with some use of the task bar on the desktop) have found it to be considerably faster and more efficient than using the old desktop menu and desktop shortcuts.
