What's new in Xcode 16

No big thing worth mentioning for me - except one.

The new unified back trace view in the debugger is pretty sweet! While the version control diff view, from which it obviously was inspired from, is a better-than-nothing feature, this looks very practical. No more jumping around source code files to retrace the call stack for context(s), everything at a glance.

Besides, the new flame graph in Instruments looks interesting, though, I did not understand how to really make use of it yet.
