Every few years Apple makes some sort of change that requires deep revisions for all developers: 69k to PPC, Classic to OSX, PPC to Intel, Carbon to Cocoa, 32 bit to 64 bit.

This is just the upheaval du jour, and I can't imagine the LC team wouldn't handle this as well as they've handled all the previous upheavals before.
