Have you ever experienced coworkers discussing something in front of the computer and touching the monitor screen time and again to point out things? It is not the most popular use case, but it does show that touching a screen to interact with a desktop is a natural inclination. Even with a desktop.

I don't agree that it's a natural inclination for working. For talking to someone else, okay, but touching the monitor for actually doing work is a fast route to gorilla arm.
