Yes, almost the *whole* idea of the desktop is bad design.

The desktop is nearly always behind what you're actually doing, and you
have to shuffle things out of the way to get to something hidden behind
them.  A few icons at the side of the screen, which can be accessed
alongside a window, works.  But a clutter of crap all over the desktop
is just a useless mess.  Even more so when there's no organisation to
the content.

Windows is a brilliant *bad* example of that.  I see people with what
looks like a hundred icons on the desktop.  They hunt through them all
trying to find the program they want, and it's like watching a 7 year
old trying to read while dragging their finger across the page.  Their
menu's pretty much the same, hundreds of icons splattered in one menu,
with no logical separation of functions (e.g. audio, video, office,
network, etc.).
