The reason why it makes sense is to alert the user that the application 
has finished launching.

If you open the file directly, the blank document won't appear. If you 
open the file after the blank document has appeared, it will _replace_ 
the blank document, so no need to manually close it (this behavior is 
also required by AHIG).

Anyway, there's an option in beta 4 to choose the behavior.
