I know what you mean, but due to the gradually shrinking floor plate putting the swoosh on a slant, it is simply geometrically impossible to have a smooth swoosh transition between the podium and the rest of the towers. The swoosh looks as you would expect when viewed from afar and straight on. But when viewed at an angle and close to the base, the jankyness is exaggerated. There's nothing that could have been done about that though.

I do get it, but I think sticking to straight, angular lines and tighter curves might have worked a little better- for instance, I think this rear reveal is quite good-looking.
