I find it discouraging that apps aren't binary compatible between 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, although I understand why. I guess Apple tries to solve this issue with xCode by creating fat bundles containing code for all three OS versions.

You are misinformed.

Apps are absolutely binary compatible from 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4!

Fat binaries are NOT used for different OS versions, only for different CPU architectures.

In addition, in most cases, things built on 10.4 will also run on OLDER OS versions as long as you don't use APIs only available in the newer OS.
