People like a single windmill, standing picturesquely in the middle of the village.
I don't think anyone would ever have gone for a field of tens or hundreds of them.

Tell that to the Dutch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windmills_at_Kinderdijk
I kinda wonder what is gonna happen to them when they reach end of life.
Knowing the history of these kinds of things, they will be left to rot and dangle in the fields they were planted.
They're replaced obviously because we really need the electricity they produce.
Not if solar keeps improving or we get the fabled affordable nuclear.
