Even calling the backend of OSX has "The Terminal" was very narrow on his scope to explain the problem of this trend and what we loose.
From where I see it, let XQuartz (partially supported/founded by Apple), Google (as seen on iOS6 Youtube.app removal), do it outside the OSX/iOS release schedule, even Apple did it for the iBooks apps and Podcast app.
Having old software stalling progress is just bad for all.
