How it works for me is that you get a one by N grid now If you had 4 x 4 previously you now have 1 x 16.
However each individual desktop is similar to before. You can put separate Safari windows on separate desktops, separate terminal windows on separate desktops, etc. the way it was before. The only major difference I see is that you don't have the grid anymore you have a one by something and so you don't get to use the arrows to go up and down. I just control-N for going to the separate desktops.
