Having a drop-down indicates that the value is changeable. This one got me for a while as I didn't know you could change the build style elsewhere.
It's a drop down because it changes the style you're editing, without changing the style that's active. This was strongly requested by many people because they were "just editing" a build style and ended up leaving it active, which either caused a full rebuild (and another full rebuild when they switched back), or generated new code with a different set of build settings. This was a prime cause of unnecessary time-consuming clean-and-rebuild cycles and failed debugging sessions.
We put the "Set Active Build Style" in the Project menu as a convenience to mitigate this change. It's also considerably faster than inspecting the project and clicking to the Styles tab, setting the style, and closing the Inspector.
