Just to play Devil’s advocate, the constraints gray out to an inactive state so that you can make a set of base constraints and then enable/disable them for various size classes. I think where Apple maybe goofed from a UX perspective is that selecting a grayed out constraint and hitting delete should delete it completely (perhaps prompting the user to confirm if Xcode detects that it’s being used by a different size class). But hitting delete does nothing, which forces the user to look up the constraint in the side panel and delete it manually.
The current graying out method would be ok if we could list all of the disabled constraints in the storyboard so we could delete them. I just discovered that entering a “-“ in the search filter box under the scenes lists all of the constraints so we can do a visual inspection and command-click all of the grayed out ones in order to hit delete. Hopefully this helps someone, I agree that this and a few other UX features could use improvement.
