I think most of us agree it was an undesirable change. It was made by the upstream developers a couple of years ago now. The reasoning is detailed in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/158
We can't just reintroduce nautilus-desktop either. The change was huge, a long time ago (so can't just be reversed) and there's nobody to support it.
But I totally agree nautilus-desktop was better than gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons.
