Does that actually make sense, or is it just another Engineering team doubling down on their poor early architectural choices ("or lack thereof")?
My understanding is that they needed some of the functionality in CoreGraphics, thus had to use Macs.
Which, if it allows them to get better quality results with less engineering time, could totally turn out to have been a sensible business decision.
