A commercial enterprise needs to focus on what will make it money and that is what I believe xara are doing
Every proposed improvement has to be weighed up and consideration given as to whether the money would be better spent elsewhere
I would not presume to 'tutor' the company because I am sure they know what they are doing
Personally I would prefer a mesh warp tool that warps vectors, which E3 had in 2003, a greyscale workspace, a vector freehand drawing tool that is useful for fast expressive strokes which inkscape ( that is free ) has had for ages...the list goes on
I will and have requested these things but it is for xara to decide
Whilst they would prefer it otherwise no doubt, I don't think they can afford to lose sleep over customers switching to affinity or illustrator - there will be many reasons for this when it happens - and besides, it is very much a myth that there is only one program you need that does everything, pushed by marketing blurb
I would suggest most of us use whatever works best for the task

windows is using the graphics card gpu to do this
however, for it's drawing window, xara has it's own rendering engine which, back in the day before gpu and fast cpu, gave it a distinct edge
I suspect that windows cannot access this, in fact as it is proprietary it would be remarkable if it could, and so that is the issue
maybe not, but the only ones who can be certain of what it does entail are those who maintain it... I seem to recall it was written at machine code level for speed, that's a highly technical task...certainly shouldn't require recoding the entire user interface.
