It is just a design cue that might have an opportunity to be enhanced, clearly no functional need there though.
I keep remembering that one line in the otherwise glowing Motor Trend article:
"Former GM design boss Wayne Cherry, a consultant judge this year, summed up the exterior design theme of the Model S as "somewhat safe and conservative," but noted the beautifully executed design-enhancing proportions, the excellent stance and gesture, and the harmony and grace of its lines. His only criticism? "The front end is a missed opportunity to establish brand identity."
The grille is that one place, and AM does it so well here, where I'd love a stylistic piece of beauty on the MS a bit improved over the current somewhat neutral (and unassuming) nose cone design...
