xibs get in the way really really quickly after you ramp up. I would rather have a solid UI library built out that I can use between apps than have to constantly reinvent the wheel and fight with xibs and the GUI editor. Maybe they are fine for one man projects but for larger apps and larger teams they are almost certainly a mistake especially if you use them all over the place. I'm not saying they did not work for hipmunk or for you generally but every app I have taken over that uses them extensively has been a nightmare to get back on track. Maybe I just have not been burned by the roll your own approach yet but I sure have been burned by the use xibs for everything approach.
