Bigger and blunter than ever before!
I just had this conversation with somebody- I remember back in the '70s when the automakers were petitioning the gummint to be able to design and use lighting other than the classic sealed beam units; the argument was they needed flexibility to make low aero front ends to meet the looming mpg standards.
Now look what we have. Almost everybody drives around in a barn on wheels, a ginormous square one at that. Sealed beams were glass and thus much more durable and resistant to pitting and yellowing than plastic. It cost $5 to replace the whole dang thing vs double that for just a puny bulb replacement into your crappy yellowed housing.

Stupid people bring this on themselves.
