People are currently using PNGs

So you're hardcoding either way.

Additionally, paintcode has the flexibility of making say, a button that shrinks/grows based on the shape of another view, say, as is caused when you rotate an ipad, etc.

I've been very happy with the product so far.

This product just outputs Obj-C, which must be baked into your source code, right? That's what I think of as hardcoding. I wouldn't call loaded PNG's from outside of the binary "hardcoded".

I can certainly see where having easy programmatic access to the primitives that make up a vector drawing would be useful though.

It outputs code that you can customize dynamically though...unlike pngs
