Because, despite (apparently) common belief, Apple is not always right? I 
personally likes the 'above them menu' tabs in Safari 4 beta, but I was clearly 
in the minority; Apple removed them. Apple's made UI missteps numerous times.

Oh great FSM, you're one of those 'Your phone is the only computer anyone ever 
needs' types, aren't you?

The horizontal and vertical controls take up *EXACTLY* the same amount of 
horizontal space, because in the normal orientation, they are still kept within 
the title bar of the window which will be there regardless.
