Help me understand something:  when is showAll useful?

I can appreciate the ease for quickie builds during early-stage development, but sooner or later the app will (hopefully) be released into a world in which device resolutions, sizes, and ratios can't be known in advance.

On the desktop we handle all possible sizes with resizeStack handlers. When would a developer not apply the same loving care to their mobile layout?
