What makes sense is not to have that by default and let users switch windows as they wish. If I have horizontally split windows: 1 -- 2 -- minibuffer and I change window 1 to 4, upon completing minibuffer window 1 becomes 4. I cannot see why. I need to consult 2-3 buffers while using minibuffer. Why is that default there?
