I would neither call part of a 'philosophy' around Qt, that'd be probably something with 'cross platform', 'ease of use'. Moc is there because it provides functionality that is not easily available in C++, qmake/.pro is the build system that happens to be used for Qt itself currently. While moc is kind of mandatory to use for Qt application development for technical reasons, qmake is not, and it is completely reasonable for an IDE to support, or even to focus on, other build systems.
