The sad news is they saw a positive change with something so primitive. But in my opinion is so wrong on so many levels.

Where they are right and you are wrong is that their solution is light cheap and simple to build and retrofit. It also can be attached and removed easily as well as fold away for storage.
From what you are describing it sounds as though your idea will not fold up or be carried while the truck has a trailer. That raises the question as to how how these boat tails of yours appear where the trucks drop off their trailers and how they keep from stacking up where they pick their trailers up from. Even if your idea could fold up and be carried with a trailer trucks have weight limits and any thing that weighs 1000lbs extra isn't going to fly.
