Not necessarily, for two reasons:

Fullscreen mode provides an "immersive" emulation experience, which isn't
necessarily important to developers, but I'm sure it has a lot of appeal
for gamers.

Secondly, if you're using an emulator to develop graphics for the A2,
fullscreen mode (with scanlines) gives a much better idea of how things
actually look than will the unnaturally sharp pixels of a small emulator
window.
