Yea, I noticed that too.
I've done some hovercraft studies and once had a chance to show several sketches to a Navy guy at a hovercraft rally. His eyes lit up when I showed him a bow shape similar to the EcoBoost chin spoiler (dolphin), in lieu of the typical big arc - half round. I showed two schemes, conventional half round and a dolphin nose that he liked that undulated with compound curves.
He said if you don't know it, you are really on to something. Reminded him of something he was privileged to see at one time but could not talk about my imagination told me.
