Default Blind spots in Jeep mirrors

I have noticed that driver side mirror of Jeep vehicles are not the same as that of other vehicles , it is zoomed in , i doubt the blind spot in such mirrors are more than that of others. Can i get some information on why such design in Jeep.

If you are worried about blind spots, just get some blind-spot stick on mirrors like this:

XJs have a lot of glass in them and your head swivels...i don't see the issue.

These jeeps are nothing to me,Some cars like a 71 mustang sport roof or a 99 300m have a back window you can't see a thing out of or the rear view mirror,Some newer cars have thick A pillars which gives you a small blind spot foward of you.
