Wheels down, I want to know!

So I am a Delta FF, which is why I post this question here. One of my Delta preferences is the middle seat on C+ which fortunately, I have been getting quite bit. But, I don't control the window seat and it drives me nuts when the window people keep the shade down the whole flight, but particularly during takeoff and landing. I don't know why people don't want to look outside, espicially when coming in for the landing. I hate guessing when wheels go down, I want to see where we are and view the landscape. I want to look outside and know when wheels go down! Am I alone in this irritation? Thanks, maybe I am just a grumpy guy.
