I guess ir never occured to you to wonder why the windows are angled outwards instead of being vertical. Well I was told by people who spent their lives in aviation it's so air traffic controllers don't see distracting reflections in the windows - e.g. of other controllers or VDUs or doors opening or whatever. They are tilted so the internal reflections are of the ceiling which don't have lights. And guess what? Lots of sites have the same explanation.
