I think it makes sense how it is now. If someone is using Bandlab or Cakewalk they can open BA and immediately access loops and sample content to drag and drop into their project. The order of the apps doesn't seem to make a lot of odds. I only ever use BA to check for updates anyway.
One feature that I would like to see that I don't think is there now? Is a notification (bottom right of screen) to alert you when a new update is available for any of the apps you have installed.
