Is a bow-front desk ergonomically better than a straight desk?

Slightly yes — the outward curve of a bow-front desk naturally positions the work zone center a few inches closer to the user compared to a straight desk of the same nominal width, reducing reach distance and encouraging a more upright, forward-engaged posture. The front edge's curve also fits more naturally against the user's torso when leaning forward to read or write. The ergonomic advantage is real but modest compared to height adjustability or proper monitor positioning.
