Yes it does, but spatial orientation does not. The modern Finder uses browser windows that allow me to look at the same folder in multiple windows at the same time. It also constantly forgets what a folder looked like the last time I opened it.
This means I can no longer rely on my spatial memory to navigate my computer. I am reduced to navigating entirely by abstract hierarchy plus search. If you’ve ever tried cooking in someone else’s kitchen you’ve experienced first hand the huge decline in productivity that comes from not knowing where everything is. Compared to cooking in your own kitchen, the experience can be quite jarring and uncomfortable. The modern macOS Finder forces everyone to cook in someone else’s kitchen.
