I find it interesting that so many folks whine about how an application looks instead of how much it helps you do your job. AppCode doesn't tout itself as a beautiful Mac application. It's written by developers for developers. We have a saying at my office: 'If you can't code, it's likely that you care about pixel perfection.' I care about getting stuff done. I don't care about how pretty my application is when I'm getting the job done. I like things that increase my velocity (in my case over 50%). I feel like Xcode just gets in the way many times. Simple things like not being able to have the cursor in the middle of a line and be able to simply add a line under the current line (vi lovers: think 'o' from the middle of a line). In Xcode you have to go to the end of the line and hit enter. That is one trivial example of a time saver that AppCode offers. (There are MANY).
Instead of whining about pixel perfection, try taking a look at the things it does and the audience it targets. You probably don't code enough to actually have an opinion that matters much anyway.
