Actually, the problem is today's ties are overall too short and do not provide enough material to accomplish the proper Full Windsor Knot---tie manufacturer no doubt saving a buck wherever they can. As most ties are not manufactured to accommodate the proper Windsor, it becomes necessary to fudge and cheat with the short end that typically should not be seen anyway.
That, and most folks do not know how to tie the Full Windsor, the author of the linked article being among those. The kind of knots most often seen are lop-sided, sloppy affairs, that have little aesthetic balance.
For the edification of those unfamiliar with the procedure we pass along the following link:
