I gotta believe that the idea for using the flowtie in the crossbar came very early. Someone fell in love with that idea and they engineered around that. If more airflow was the primary goal they could have taken a fraction of an inch off the top or bottom edge of the crossbar and achieved the same and still used a solid bowtie or a flowtie in the upper grille. A solid bowtie in the crossbar existed as far back as the TF5 Bumblebee concept. They had time to go the right direction and chose not to.
