If there were some evidence MVC actually worked, perhaps.
Unfortunately, there isn't, so there's little reason to do this.
Nevermind that most MVC frameworks get the definitions entirely wrong,
despite the plethora of examples from the original paper (e.g., Swing
does).

No, there really isn't anymore.  Integrated teams are the mandatory
order of the day, because getting the necessary fuel economy requires
paying close attention to body design.  Vehicles where the designer
runs rampant over the look are getting rarer, and will continue to do
so as long as governments continue to tighten fuel economy standards
(and to a lesser degree, safety standards).
