:x (exit) saves your file if modified, then closes its window. If it
is the last non-help window, Vim exits. This is the general cases:
there are special cases, for instance if the current buffer is
unnamed, which cause an error. IOW, in the normal case, :x reduces the
number of windows by one (saving the editfile if necessary)

OTOH, :wn writes the current files then starts editing the next file
in the arguments list in the same window. It doesn't change the number
of open windows.

Making the one act like the other would confuse me.

Tony.
