Wow that’s impressive.

Is it because the first two were prototypes so they bolted on whatever they needed without care for it looking nice or did they just refine it so much that they were able to simplify the design significantly?

That and the march of progress, despite what some people believe we are still evolving at a rapid pace and engine outputs have significantly increased recently.
