Obviously, we'll all have our personal preferences, no harm, no foul, but the widespread consensus is that they do look goofy, and/or aren't necessary, or the market would be such that most bikes would come with them, or have attachments for them. The market doesn't prefer them, therefore the bike companies aren't equipping new bikes with them to any meaningful degree.
