The design of the Control Center, like many design elements discussed at WWDC, is not considered final. In the session "Design foundations from idea to interface," it is mentioned that design is never really finished and there's no single right answer. This suggests that the design of the Control Center, as with other elements, is subject to change and evolution over time.
