Why no grid for home screens?

[iLunar]

Just curious if any developers have a hunch why there's no grid layout for home screens? It'd be nice, especially with iPhone 6s' larger displays, to be able to place apps anywhere on a gird, and not have them automatically ordered. In sure this has been asked before, and I know there are springboard/jailbrake options, but was just curious.

Hoping Apple takes notice with these larger devices.

I almost like not having a grid. When I had a grid on Android I spent way too much time reordering everything to make it more efficient/pretty/etc. Automatically sorting them encourages me to not care so much about it and get back to doing something productive.

...like go on MacRumors to discuss it.
