dirty windscreen

I've always thought that the windscreen-smearing should be dynamic; after leaving a port or having just done repairs, it should be clean for at least the first supercruise session. But after a couple of hyperspace jumps, maybe it should get progressively dirty, and certainly after a dogfight, it should look a bit tatty.

Someone said in the 34th Century they would've expected this sort of thing to be long dead - which I can relate to... and on the same note, why is it that even the cheapest little Dacia or FIAT car of the current epoch can afford to put an LED on my dashboard, showing me when my frickin' headlights are switched on, yet a multi-million-credit state-of-the-art Cobra (or any other ship for that matter) requires me to listen for the barely audible flashbulb 'ping' or manually pop up a secondary display and shuffle through menus, just to see whether I'm going to illuminate that other craft I'm about to crash into because I'm no longer looking at it out the window! Grrrr! :D

To state the obvious, it's primary purpose is to AID immersion because it gives something for the extreme star light to illuminate when at an angle. I kinda like it because it implies the cold of space.
