If that's fair, does it not also apply to the Routemaster, hence the

The routemaster isn't a pastiche , its the real thing. And while its
looks might be old fashioned they don't look as plain daft as the
current LTI taxi. Having said that the only good thing about the
routemaster IMO is the hop on/off ability. Apart from that its too
small and too cramped to be a realistic bus for todays crowds.

I am not criticising or praising the Routemaster, but by 1969 or so it
was an updated version of a design that was going out of date in the
1950s, and certainly not exactly overpowered.
