Oh wow. This is a MUCH better solution. Thanks @DanTup! I’ll do some testing and update my PR. Cheers! 🍻

I just did some testing, and it seems that if you pass -n to open it always does the right thing? If simulator is already running, it just switches to it. If it’s running without a device, it seems to force it to spawn a device? Unless I’m misunderstanding, it’s a perfect solution? 😃
