For the sake of good discussion...

I can only assume that your desktop is a complete and utter mess.

Speed alone doesn't make a browser excellent. Safari 4 is lesser than it's competitors in all other aspects other than speed, and the speed of Safari 4 at this point in time compared to FF 3.5 is pretty much negligible to the human eye. The only features that are unique to safari 4 at this point in time are:
Topsites- large thumbnails of your most viewed pages
Coverflow bookmarks- what more can I say?
However,
- Top sites is pretty useless unless it's the default page on load.
- Coverflow for bookmarks is eye candy and it's a GUI nightmare IMO. Coverflow is sort of useful in itunes because you can recognise the colors/shapes of your album art but with Safari 4, your websites gets updated automatically, therefore you can't recognise the sites- so you still need to read the list to choose your bookmarks, rendering the coverflow useless.
Safari 4 still provides no way to easily manage addons and still disappoints.
Safari's trump card (speed) is being matched, and it has nothing left to offer in my opinion.
It's not a good browser.
I have OS X and enjoy using it at times, but I'm 100% sure Safari 4 is not part of my "Mac experience" (which is not as awesome as you like to preach) and now it's gathering dust in my applications folder.

Safari 4 isn't good. The UI sucks compared to the last version, and it still has no comparable unique features to any other web browser at the moment.
