 I always keep my display in it's "highest" position and I never got why would anyone tilt it downwards. Therefore, why this function exists (not that I mind having it)?

 Shorter people might want it tipping down? Not sure really. Could also be to take it out of the sun due to reflections?

 Reducing glare / Direct sun in the screen in some situations

 It's simply overdone. Have really tried to find any sun glare, moving my head around. Never found any glare motivating a separate engine control...

But's original! ;O)

 Perhaps it's just not sunny enough where you live?

Sun strike here has occasionally lit up the entire dash screen which was alarming until I realised what was happening after a second.

 Frankly, I don't have a clue... In the beginning I fiddled around with it, with or without sun glare, whether polaroid sunglasses or my favourite non-polarized Ray-Bans on my nose, it didn't make the slightest difference. Oh well, just a little French gimmick, absolutely useless but a nice show-off.

 I am glad I can tilt the display. In my car I changed to a Hi-Res screen and possible to the higher light intensity of the screen, I really need the tilting capability.
