Having operated a ~1995 7800 with flat glass and a ~2015 7270 with curved, I know which one I'm picking.

Are automobiles using curved windshields so they have a stranglehold on the replacement windshield market?

Your example doesn't pass my sniff test.

How is a curved window better on a tractor?

In this case, glare and reflections.

It’s also stronger.

It's more aero :)
