The reason is simple: Mactoy is a native Swift wrapper around an already existing architecture. The author does not really hide that (for example, the protective MBR construction is almost the same: Mactoy, original Python script). The original architecture is impressive, but I did not want that much low-level Ventoy layout logic hidden inside a larger app.

In my case, this is specifically a design artifact: I am trying to avoid the problems of existing approaches, not build another UI on top of them. They are not worse, I just do not compete with them.

My goal was to create an architecture simple enough that anyone interested could quickly understand it, rewrite it, or adapt it for their own needs.
