I don't see ex-Apple working at Microsoft that high in hierarchy. But it is true that a Scott Forstall-like would not hurt. > Don’t accept an interaction design where the Pictures and Calendar app icons on the Start Screen take up 50% of the screen. I didn't see the point either, but after trying a WPhone, I think this is actually a practical decision : When you have events in the calendar going on, having them displayed on the rectangle is useful. The pictures one is useless, but since you can change its size to a square, I don't see the problem.
