Google has definitely been getting better at aesthetics, and I think that it's a good thing that they have cared more about their functionality. That said, people do like sleek and good looking, and that's what sells the most. Pointing out the aesthetic flaws of Google Glass isn't very fair in my mind, it's a very new technology and the way that it works limits how good it can look, without some very clever engineering.
