I guess I wanted to talk theory, not cost.
Smaller mirrors as found on motorcycles are going to be more aerodynamic than truck mirrors for towing, those are perhaps two extreme examples.
I guess if the side mirror housing were too long, it would impair the scope of vision around it. And maybe even hit the side of the car when you open the door. Those issues aside, I'm still wondering why we don't see mirrors like I've drawn everyday.
