That bike's much too clean.

Q: why do so many bikes come with cable disks now? Just budget, or a performance/maintenance benefit?

If that's a QR then the axle will still pull out from the not-vertical dropout under power ๐Ÿ™

Why - have all our geared bikes got a design flaw?

The "vertical" dropouts on the Konas actually face forward slightly so that you can get the wheel out if the chain's a bit tight. They're not actually vertical...
