I really like the printed versions of this. Particularly https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=65066pb09&name=Glass%20for%20Door%20Frame%201%20x%206%20x%207%20Arched%20with%20Notches%20and%20Rounded%20Pillars%20with%20Stained%20Glass%20and%20Princess%20with%20Bright%20Pink%20and%20Dark%20Pink%20Dress%20Pattern&category=%5BWindow,%20Glass%20&%20Shutter,%20Decorated%5DT=P&C=12
The sort of part image that makes you think "did we get a Forbidden™ part today?" before you squint and realise, "nope, it's actually just responding to complaints about monochrome parts in completely the wrong direction."
They haven't really used this part to its potential. Most instances seem to be covered in stickers, and the only use I can see that's just a clear window has an awning hiding the arched top.
This part begs for a magic mirror print from Snow White... it would be perfect for it.
I don't see the a-peel.
This is good, but what really puzzles me is why Lego still hasn't made a 2x3 version of this (or whatever the exact dimensions are) for the small arched window. We have lattice work, iron bars, or a wooden door, but no regular transparent windows in any colours. I just don't get it. It particularly stands out on Palace Cinema (which has glass in the lower windows but the upper arched windows are just empty) and Jazz Club, where the lower pizzeria windows have glass but then the arched windows have random black lattice.
Worst random part of the day ever!!
You can’t even see it!!
;)

I can see it just fine. Maybe something’s wrong on your end?
I see the piece has activated its stealth mode
Today's part: a ghost run over flat by a drum press roller.
Loony Tunes style

Adding gold-colored lattice makes a huge difference to Palace Cinema, but you are on point with the Jazz Club (and same for Detective's Office, and to a lesser degree, Greengrocer, Pet Shop and Assembly Square).
