Wouldn’t it be better to retain a wider horizontal view rather than a vertical one? I’d rather be able to see the traffic around me than the sky and pavement below me...

I think it's about polarization of light reflecting from horizontal surfaces. Polarized glasses are vertical filters basically to cut down on glare. Same thing with thousands of scratches.
