I use window separation and profiles in Konsole every single day and alarms are handy when needed.

I have a 4K display and terminal has it's own virtual desktop, separating a Konsole window into nested tabs is a must to simplify the navigation between tabs since you can switch to other groups by a single hotkey.

I use profiles to visually differentiate tabs for different purposes (e.g. ssh to hosts with master and replicas of DBMS, which I did years prior to [0] happened), some made for fixing production hosts so they have an infinite logging enabled, and one can alter hotkey schemes with those.

Alarms are just an easy way of triggering a notification when a task is done or failed, saves time and brain resources.

You can get a fair bit of that with terminal multiplexers like tmux. It does not have the ability to style different tabs. But it has advantages too. For example, you can have multiple terms connected to a single tmux session, you can run tmux when ssh’d to a remote server, the tool is not tied to a particular vt.

Not to say your setup is deficient, but I think I understand where the parent is coming from.
