    That is for you to ask. Maybe the answer is simply that you don't.

    Nobody forces you to use it. Nobody forces you to use full screen mode either. I rarely use them.

    The fact that they are there is in no way detrimental to my use of the mac.

    You can perfecly ignore it - I am sure most users don't know it exists, and yet they continue to use their macs just fine.

    Thank you Luis. This Split View is the first news Apple is writing about OSX El Capitain on the Apple store.

    It means that it should be one of the best thing of this OS: risizing windows ( as it was before).

    I have no words.

    You may not see any value in split view but those who want to split the screen between two apps are likely finding some value in this functionality.If you don't value nor need split view don't use it.
