Now what is the defining trait of vista? Little to no enterprise adoption.

No it sucked.

The big thing about windows 8 is "glanceability", aka imagine this usage scenario:
I'm working on a spread sheet in Excel. And suddenly I get a facebook message.

On windows 7, I would have to periodically login to facebook to check my messages. breaking my workflow, and requiring multiple clicks and possibly a login.

In order to do the same thing on windows 7, it would take me 5 minutes, visiting a dozen sites, and opening a dozen programs, completely breaking my concentration.

Sorry but you lost me there completly.
First Win 7 doesn't break your workflow nor Concentration because it doesn't notify you when you get a new message it's you who is breaking your workflow and concentration by loggin into facebook.
You're the one distracting yourself by doing other things instead of concentrating on your work not the other way around.
Also Win 8 would then most likely to distract you as it let's you know when someones writing to you or posting something on FB or other social medias by notifications which you'll probally want to respond to thus breaking your workflow and concentration.
