Merge Home & Launcher screens

I believe usability will be improved if Home and Launcher are combined into a long continuous vertical scroll. Currently, the Home screen forces you to see the covers + 4 apps, and the Launcher screen shows all apps minus the 4 top apps.

The UI seems to be forcing a false dichotomy, it's either you see some of the apps or most of the apps, but not all.

A cake analogy would be like, either you eat the cake or the icing, but not both!
