So even though the process is different, the ultimate outcome of
having an object model is consistent between both approaches.
I can think of one major difference: UI editing after the fact.
And this includes localization. (Having presented the session on
internationalization at WWDC last week, I feel particularly obligated
to point this out, repeatedly if necessary.) To properly
internationalize your app on Mac OS, you must make *no* assumptions
about the relative positioning of objects in your UI. Codegen UI
tools hard-code this layout into your app, which makes this much
harder for localizers.
