Why is this a thing now? Artificial trees used to always come in 2 parts. You had to assemble the top to the bottom. Which was easier to decorate everything but the lights on the top portion.

Because it takes up less space...

I get that but it's not like it's a new "wow" breakthrough or anything. That's my point, that goes back to 60's/70's at least.

Then say so. You only questioned why this was a thing and something about top to bottom.

Actually I did.

You seemingly not understanding why this is a thing.

You commenting on top and bottom parts, different from a left and right part / only half a tree which can be put flat against a wall.
>Which was easier to decorate everything but the lights on the top portion.
More about the top.

You're not understanding the half correctly. It's not half, as in top and bottom. It's half as in front and no back. Like it sits flat against the wall and is a semicircle shape as opposed to the normal circle. I don't believe that goes back anywhere near the 60s or 70s. It's legitimately a new product.

Ah. That is a different iteration, which explains why it's a thing now.That makes sense.
