Meh, I don't buy it. Fashion is invisible except in hindsight. It's all just fashion, it's hairspray and shoulder pads and bell bottoms. Nobody actually wants to live in a house that looks like a laboratory, it's just the fad of our time. And it sells, so with the current environment of investment first home second, greater-fool-in-a-few-years home buying strategy, it makes sense to reinforce it. It's the same thing with everything else. What it comes down to is risk aversion. "Convergence" is just "copycatting". Aside from functional convergence, aesthetic convergence is just fashions, fads and copycats. We will all look back on this "optimize everything by removing the soul" as sterile, unimaginative and uninspiring.
