Having watched the video of the phone I agree, it actually looks like quite a good concept. I do think the integration with Windows is excellent as well, if I am at my computer realistically why should I need to pick up my phone? All of my notifications, features and settings should be accessible from my Windows laptop/desktop.
All of them are accessible from your Windows machine using the Your Phone app.

What are you scaling? I’m not sure I understand your question without more context
Scaling is when you change the size of fonts, apps, etc. In Win10 if you chose anything above 100% everything becomes blurry. There's also a problem when you use multiple monitors with different resolutions. You move a window from one screen to the next and it doesn't scale properly. It's a known issue for some years, and I'd wish they solved it in Win11.
I only have issue with Telegram’s client, and that’s due to their use of Qt, which doesn’t support native UI scaling without relaunching the app.
But I would guess that may vary depending on your setup.

Meanwhile here I am on Windows 11 (via the dev channel) living the best life with my touch laptop that I use both for work and leisure. Can you explain what makes you think Windows 11 "pretends desktops don't exist anymore"? If it's the product line-up revealed at this Surface event: the Surface line is explicitly a line of touch devices, so the focus on mobility seems on par.
You actually hit the nail on the head. Touch devices do not make up the majority of existing Windows devices. My 43" monitor is never going to be touch. It is like if Apple decided that a third of all interactions on the next iPad OS would require you to plug in a mouse.
Most of the time I use the touch support for sketching or highlighting with the pen. My pairs of external monitors at home and in the office are also non-touch.
