Opinions are various. At least allowing Hugin to load projects with the big button will simplify the work.
How to distinguish between Open project and Merge / Add images to project: On a blank screen, big button clicked: - Selecting a single .pto file does NEW, Open Project - Selecting more than one .pto files does NEW, Open and merge projects - Selecting a .pto file and images does NEW, Open project, add images to project - Selecting images only may Add images as it works currently or do NEW, Open images. Decision belongs to you. While work, selection from menu: Selecting from menu File/Add (not using the big button) will not do New, but it will allow to add images and projects to the currently open project.
