I hate the narrowed width at the doors because it’s simply lost space and worse aerodynamics for aesthetic reasons. Never let the artists conception drive the engineering.

It could be Whitcomb-waisting, as currently in play with the Cd 0.1716 Mercedes-Benz EQXX.
It has been also described in connection with 'area-rule', 'sectional- density', 'bump-placement', and Coke-bottling.'
It can mitigate the pressure spikes associated with the sudden greenhouse eruption from the main body, actually enhancing attached flow and low drag.
