For instance, consider https://tart.run/
All the Android / iOS devs on my team use Tart locally when we need to test mixed environments.
Then we use Tart's sister Cirrus CLI to run our builds on our server.
It allows you to easily install and maintain several versions of Xcode (beta / RC versions).
And, more importantly, uses aria2 for HTTP download, which has resumability.

It is possible reporting is getting this wrong and the Markdown feature and it is just to serve use case above. As an example, Google Docs recently enabled "Paste from Markdown" that also is a huge convenience.
But from a revenue perspective in 2023, it is a mistake. Of your list, which of work, vendor, and personal likely is a paid account? I’d argue in 2023 they only care about work and vendor and that is what they are optimizing their experience for at present. Now that adoption has saturated and the curve has flattened, the strategy of personal or even open source workspaces has served its purpose.
In short, now that they’ve got their hooks in, I’m sure they’d be happy for the personal workspaces go elsewhere, leaving just the paying professional context, and single login login, interacting with vendor/partner contexts.
In slacks new product vision, you don’t sign into multiple workspaces, you sign into your “home” workspace and get invited via Slack Connect to other workspaces.
This seems to be reinforced by collapsing the workspace picker and making unreads in other workspaces less obvious.
