> Why don't car manufacturers have a place for the phone in the roof or something so that it gets optimal antenna placement? Yes it would be unseemly but wouldn't we get much better reception?
Don’t you answer your own question? It would be unseemly. Phones still get signal and consumers aren’t demanding an option for optimal antenna placement. If they did install them, would consumers even notice battery savings when most people charge their phones in the car anyway? So for car manufacturers, it seems like all downsides.
