> Rebooting is so fast these days it isn't an issue
Rebooting still means you can't do both things at once. And even if its instant, losing all my state is annoying. Sure, a proper window manager can restore state, and a good tab manager will preserve those too, but its a freagin pain in the ass. Plus the pre-boot sequence is slower than the actual OS booting, so I still consider that a pain.
Maybe I'm petty (to each their own), but rebooting once a week would drive me nuts, nevermind once a day.
