Maybe cost is also a factor?  One of the earlier postings in here referred
to the different colors of locomotives, which reminded me of a historical
fact... rail road locomotives used to be painted in various color schemes
like this, but then Cornelius Vanderbilt started painting his locomotives
all black, in order to save money, which is why the later steam engines
were all black.  Maybe it would cost a lot more to paint waves, etc. on
the shuttles?
