Do we really need more regulation. I do understand what your are talking about. The Grand Prix has very little head room (I'm 5' 9") and the windshield ends above the steering wheel. But my take on it is the drivers seat is too high. Looking straight forward uses the upper 1/3 of the glass.This is of course a personal preference having driven many sports cars with the seat very close to the floor.
I also drive in what is considered less than optimal seat location, too far back and with a slight recline.
I agree most of it is about styling and compromise.
