and one needs to add how much pain/benefit each setting provides when it is 
the "wrong" setting.

e.g.:

if i would prefer seeing all windows, but i only see some, what is the cost?

if i would prefer seeing only windows on this desktop, but see all, what is 
the cost?

so if 65% (made up number :) of people who use multiple desktops would prefer 
"only show on" but the cost is high when "only show on" is wrong, it may still 
make sense to default to "show all".

which also begs the question of how easy is it to find the configuration 
controls for these things ... so much one could investigate to expand our 
decision making knowledge :/
