I’m curious if whonix actually provides any value rather than just running tor locally?
Like has there ever been a case when because tor was run locally on someones computer over using whonix for tor that they were compromised?

Fair enough. I said this in another comment already, but for this reason I really wish there was a viable desktop OS that uses a microkernel, since such an OS can be much more easily designed do secure compartmentalization without the need for VMs or duplicate parallel processes in general. A micorkernel OS still has more computational overhead than one monolithic kernel, but would be much more resource frugal than multiple VMs.
