There are lots of engine designs with advantages. But almost none of
them see the light of mass production. After weeding out the 99% that
have some sizeable downside, the level of investment and experience
needed before a car manufacturer would trust their business to a new
engine design is excessively large. Car engine design is not a good area
to invent in.
