Well, the mere fact that you cite Realband as an exception should lend credence to NOT hiding tracks in BIAB!

As you correctly imply, BIAB is NOT a DAW nor will/should it ever be! And this change does not make it more like a DAW IMHO.

- no DAW I have ever used has only 7 (full-featured) tracks
- no DAW I have ever used has arbitrary default track names
- no DAW I have ever used prohibits me from change track order

And finally, the new "feature" is not even working consistently! Try applying a style like _NORFOLK.STY. The new mixer will,

- hide the Bass track
- hide the Strings track
- hide the Soloist track
- display the Drums track which is NOT used in this style
- display the Melody track which is NOT used in this style

This new "feature" is unwelcome to me and inconsistently working (broken) to everyone!
