No one said they are not valuable. I've used UNIX for 25 years and GNU/Linux
for over a decade, so I'm aware of that. Let the details show all of the
time, if you prefer. I hide them most of the time - on GNU/Linux as well as
Windows.

The point is that you don't need to sacrifice screen real estate when you're
not looking at that information. And when you want it, it's only a keystroke
away.
