The minimize button is not "prominent" at all! In fact, it's invisible if the application is maximized.

More to the point, though: if I clicked a launcher button for an open window accidentally and I now want that window to go away again, it's much easier to just click that launcher button again -- conveniently near the mouse I just clicked it with -- rather than run off to whichever screen the window is on so I can find its minimize button, which may or may not be visible and/or accessible.
