Why does it matter that project-find-regexp uses *XREF*? the question
is why would you need to switch to it when it is not displayed in any
window?

When I work with xref-related features, I keep the *XREF* buffer on
display as long as I use it. When I'm done using it, I don't care
about it anymore.
In any case, there's just one such buffer, so switching to it is easy.

That we mainly support projects that piggy-back VCS repositories
doesn't mean that's the only kind of project that could be useful.
And even if the backend is Git, no one said that I want all of the
files in the repository to be part of my project. I may be working on
a project that includes just a handful of files from a repository that
has thousands of them.
