At $1250 for the windshield and molding strip+ clips + install, and most of us have our insurance company pay for it..What makes you think Toyota will do anything about it ? They are probably laughing their asses off right now and gives the guy who designed the windshield a big bonus....Thats where they are making their money....

All of this implies intentional collusion and defrauding the public by knowingly doing this. It also implies a paper trail of the decisions to do this.
Toyota would be opening themselves up to several major civil and criminal law suits from doing what you say. Having worked with Toyota manufacturing on a few projects over my career I can't see this being the case at all. With all due respect to you, they are very conscientious and take a lot of time in mitigating safety issues on any decision they make. Everything is thought through and well documented. This is an engineering company and one that is fanatical about quality and they take a long term view towards everything they do.
This is a first year model of an innovative new design. I am sure at some point the shoe will drop and the windshields will be mass replaced if they are indeed as delicate as people are reporting here.
I have had a few rocks hit the windshield and have had no issues yet.
