Fitting the iPhone 5 simulator on my screen?

Apple seems only to have included a retina version of the iPhone 5 (4-inch) simulator. This is great, but way too big to fit on my screen. Almost 35% is cut off, and I have a 23-inch monitor.

Are there any workarounds/hacks to make it fully display on my screen? Is it likely that Apple might include a non-retina (just normal sized) iPhone 5 simulator?

They have it for the iPhone 4, so not sure why they wouldn't include the same thing for iPhone 5..

If you look in Scale in the Window menu, you can make the simulator window 50% or 75% size.
