Hey bud, you up late or early?
It's kind of funny that you say that. The purpose for nUI in my mind is to remove many of the windows that are in the middle of the screen (Chat, MiniMap, Recount, Omen, etc.) And move them all down so the middle of the screen is just for the world view. By putting these new aura windows back into the display area it feels like a step backwards.
I know my wife and I fell in love with the interface for exactly that reason. Too much clutter in the main view with so many addons. You make the bottom of the screen the "Control center" while the rest of the screen is our view of Azeroth.
I understand your point, but I think you may have missed what many of us chose nUI for to begin with
