A MusicDevice is more than a MidiEffect with no inputs.
It has more API so you can control it without MIDI (so you can generate
music from an app. without having to create
and send MIDI events, which seems quite logical if you don't need any
MIDI device).
In fact, the MIDI interface of MusicDevice is just a "bonus", and can
be implement by calling the
new API (which should be the way to do, as suggested by Apple in this
list), since the new API have much
more capabilities than what you can do with just MIDI Note On, Note Off
and Program Changes.
As far as I know, no current host does use these API, since there are
all MIDI based application, and consider
AU just as any MIDI synth.

Basically, an instrument is an effect with no input (considering that
both handle MIDI), so why making two classes ?
