Why does one have to download nearly 1GB to make a
x.x.1 update to XCode? What gives?!? Why aren't there
delta updates for Xcode like there are for the OS
updates?

Because the last time Apple did that (the Xcode 1.1 update), the delta was incomplete, and it made development in groups much more difficult since everyone tended to have a different version of the 1.1 update installed. I'm glad they've never done that again.
