Nosiness may be part of it, sure. But I think so many people are curious because visitation is an issue that many struggle with, and he's been very open about his family's arrangements so perhaps he'd be willing to share what works and doesn't work for them as far as visitation goes.
Most people don't have such an amicable divorce. Many divorced parents lose sight of the best interest of the kids and focus on their own self interest, which causes strife for everyone. If one's ex is like that, it might help to have a visitation model to follow from someone who is being sane about the relationships and the family, who is keeping the best interest of the kids at the heart of it like Steve is.
There's no one right answer, of course. Perhaps it's just reassuring to know that someone else out there IS being sane about it, if one is stuck in a custody battle.
