That's a bit like saying that if you know you are going to die in
a years time then you might as well do anyway with yourself now
because the end is inevitable! I don't know about you but I'd want
to enjoy my last year as much as possible!
If you want to use that analogy, please factor in:
1) Reincarnation
2) The ability to try out your next life without ending your last one
3) The ability to make changes to your next life to make it better
before you are forced to end your previous one
There is no need to factor these things in because there is no such
thing as reincarnation and the other two are impossible.
The analogy I would use is that you're moving to a new house which
is more modern and better designed than your current one, but has a
few things you need to fix up before you live there. The new owner
of your current house doesn't need you to move out yet, so you have
the luxury of living on there, just visiting the new house on
weekends in order to get those things done. Why wait until you're
forced to move to make a start on them?
But what if I like the house I am living in now, most people prefer
older houses, that's why they cost more. Besides that, I don't want
to move, why should I be forced to?
But why do you want it consolidated? It's not an iPad or an
iPhone, it's a blazingly fast state of the art computer with
oodles of RAM, disk space and screen real estate, why clump it all
into one window, forcing everything to be moved /removed/summoned,
when only one small part of the information need be operated on?
As others have pointed out, you can have as many windows open as
you like.
This is true, but when you do have many open windows in XCode 4 the
experience is not good because you can't make the large project
window small enough and therefore you end up moving windows about and
therefore waste time.
Cheers
Dave
