By now, everyone is far too aware it's all about PROJECTING and IMAGE (and not into the user's eye about their environment, but into the audience's mind about the user), and at this point it's widely agreed that the image it projects is that of a Narcissistic Douchebag Glasshole.

If you read the comments carefully, you will realize that I explicitly stated that the current devices would be too obtrusive for this purpose. It is possible that there would be a negative backlash over the use of such a device, but it would not be caused by the appearance of the device, if properly executed.
