Some might also say that rear-facing doesn't look as cool as front-facing.
Not much worry about this in a forward facing for several reasons.
1 There is more garbage on the road coming up than would be above the hood.
2 Filter can be put in place to filter out bigger pieces
3 The top can hang out urther to keep stuff from dropping in (rain, acorns etc)
4 More water comes up from puddles than would drop down a small dam at the bottom would help even more.
