By and large, engineers are paid to design what 'the market' wants, which, unfortunately, is generally small and cheap. Except for TVs, of course, where bigger is better. 5 foot screens - what for???I do design my own tube audio gear for home use, so here the orientation (quality) is more important than price (within reason). Quality is, admittedly, a loose term, subject to wide interpretation. I have my own set of priorities, which include aesthetics as well as sound. Hence the reluctance to use an open frame 'pole pig' style power transformer and cheap open frame chokes.
