I appreciate your comment and Apple's view.
I respect my user's views and would be happy to do a fast switch except...and this is clearly debatable...it makes UI sense on this app to exit.
I can think of no reason to return.
It is just a simple...do this, do that, show this, DONE...kind of app.
The button is only if they want to get additional information but they would do so only after finishing using the app.
It just makes sense...for this app.
And the plist value worked quite well.
I am grateful!
