I figured it might have something to do with noise. (Though I have never had any complaints) But I am sure that they could have come up with a solution that didn't cause so much collateral damage (and it must be blindingly obvious that such a system is highly vulnerable to blockage and that essential and expensive componants such as ECU's and brake servos located in areas likly to fill with water and reliant on these devices for drainage would be subject to frequent damage). OTOH why would they want too, the damage doesn't normally become apparent until the vehicle is 4 or 5 years old by which time they want you to scrap it and buy a new one anyway!
