I agree with you, but it looks like that won't happen. From the linked article:

"...boosters are quick to point out that the new cars would be thoroughly modern, sleek and environmentally sound..."

In other words, the new cars will have a bland, perfunctory design with no style or aesthetic sensibility whatsoever.

San Francisco spent a small fortune buying up those gorgeous 1940s streetcars and restoring them to their former glory before returning them to service. Worth every penny, if you ask me.
