In my mind, it seems to mark more sense to have a maximized window consume the whole screen, and use smaller windows only when you want to view other information. Since a non-maximized window already allows you to view other information, it doesn't seem to make a lot of sense to duplicate this behavior with maximize, particularly as it would come at the cost of losing traditional maximization.
