"VS is not a Metro app: All versions of Visual Studio run on the desktop"

That was my understanding. I guess I expressed myself poorly. I was wondering why a piece of software that is apparently explicitly for 'Desktop' (as in creating things for it) would sacrifice sensibility for the sake of any Metro concepts.

I don't know, the entirety of it is weird to me, so maybe this makes more sense to somebody who understands the reasoning behind everything else about windows 8.
