It's expensive. I got quoted 10k for 4 windows
This is the real reason they disappeared - awnings cost money and don't increase square footage. That's also why every modern building is a boring box.
We didn't forget about them, it's still covered in architecture school. You can even make them look really cool. But they cost money, and that's a hard barrier to cross.
Better quality of living (in the long run even living longer) and less energy consumption on the AC may change that calculation.
