I agree that things that slow you down kill your creativity thus an emphasis on workflow in the last year.

I agree the Track view has huge potential in terms of doing all your work. It was intentionally neutered last year as a start and just got a cursor this year. Many of us agree with you that it needs to be a primary place to work.
Ideally you should be able to do anything you can do in the chord track on a special chord track in the track view as in full Chord View capabilities.

BB is unique in that the progression is really the root of the process thus also a primary window. The Micro chords, Bar settings and Chord Settings need to be re-imagined directly in the Chord view.

The progression plus the library of musicians together makes this song.
The Track view can be a place to fine tune or as you suggest a place to start as long as the progression is there.
