While that may be true, it doesn’t make people want them any more than they currently do. People want to have their full window view available whenever they want it. This means it needs to be retractable and extendable at the push of a button. And once you have that, it’s easy and helpful for it to also be automated

Shade doesn’t have to block any of the view. Many very modern houses with giant windows use these principles.

View includes being able to see the sky. These permanently block some of the view of the sky.

Speak for yourself, I’d rather not have the sun baking me. We don’t have central A/C where I live and we’re not allowed awnings of any kind. So it’s super heavy curtains. I’d jump for any kind of awnings in a second.
