This is SO HORRIBLE -- please Apple, bring back LaunchPad! I need LaunchPad for custom groups of applications for different work modes I'm in. If I want to livestream (for example), and I don't remember the names of all those related apps... I just go to LaunchPad with 4-finger gesture, open the LiveStreaming folder... and by MUSCLE MEMORY see and click on the necessary app.
Whereas using Spotlight Search requires you to REMEMBER the name of the app you want to launch! But if you have TONS of apps... sometimes it's quite hard to remember that one app you rarely use, but when you need it it's extremely helpful.
Apple: just because you have shiny new Spotlight Search features.... why do you need to remove LaunchPad??? Is it really taking such a tremendous amount of developer resources to keep it around? (It provides a different functionality that Spotlight Search does not!)
