Tell that to all the Windows users who think they're not really using an app until it's fully maximized to the entire width of their 20" display. Somehow it never seems to occur to them that stretching the background of a fixed-width layout (e.g., most web site designs) to cover all other running apps is actually reducing the amount of visible information on the screen. This is probably why the same subset of misguided individuals cannot understand why the zoom widget in the Mac OS doesn't simply "maximize" a window. Often, the best way to display the most data on the screen at once is to make each window as small as possible without clipping content. That Apple has relented on this point is unfortunate.
