If you want to sell whatever you have, despite function, would you rather purchase something that "looks old" or something that "looks new"? I suspect most people would go with the latter. Since "looks new" sells, people will design it in that matter. Note that "looks new" and "looks old" are relative terms to the last design. That's why they're trends and cycle back and forth.
