Nolan answered this question the year it came out. He said if you’re trying to figure out whether or not Cobb is still in a dream, you’re focused on the wrong thing. What’s important is that he doesn’t care anymore once he’s reunited with his kids.

I’m guessing that the unevenness introduces a lot of wobble that has to be compensated for, which results in a redesign at minimum, if not more expensive to build.
Plus, probably wouldn’t work for ceiling fans because they’re designed to be balanced as they hang down.

With all due respect, you’ve missed the point, which was the concern that the six month amnesty window gives them time to move or otherwise hide the recovered crafts and technology.
