When you do it, you show me how I'm right about it.

When you launch your GUI applications from the terminal, you have two
issues. And that takes forever. The first one is you need to move it on
another workspace, you do it with your mouse and it's slow (and when you
loose the focus and interact with another application, it's fun to see
how you struggle to do basic things). And second, when your application
is on your right workspace, you need to resize it. Which takes you
forever a second time.

I don't use the mouse to launch GUI applications from the terminal. If I
want to open a Trelby document (as an example) I do the following.
[...]
If I don't know the name of the document I want to edit, I run...
If I had a script like that, I wouldn't launch it from a terminal. I'd
launch it from a keystroke with the help of wofi. Something like when I
want to see a pdf file:
bindsym $mod+z exec find ~ \( -path ~/Download\* -o -path ~/divers\* -o -path ~/Lecture/Pdf/ALire/\* \) -a \( -name "*.pdf" -o -name "*.ps" -o -name "*.epub" \) 2>/dev/null | wofi -d | xargs -r -I % zathura "%"
When I press [Windows]+[z], there is find who will look for my pdf
files, open the list in wofi and wofi open the one I select in zathura.
Wofi, rofi are dmenu are very good to launch graphical applications
without the need to open a terminal.
