Three is almost zero benefit to using those things unless you are on a racetrack or have no outside mirrors. I have not owned a car yet that I could not remove the blind spot by properly setting the mirrors up. The issue was some misguided thing decades ago that made people think they should be able to see the sides of their car (which, by the way will always be right there unless you are in a crash) in the side mirrors.
When we have run teen driving schools locally, almost every student was taught by their parents to set the side mirrors incorrectly. When they tried it the right way, they were amazed at how little, or non-existant, the blind spot was.

I think you are confusing a parabolic mirror for those dumb broadway mirrors. They are 2 entirely different things. A parabolic mirror would take up the entire middle section of the windshield. Parabolic mirror is a giant concave circle while a broadway mirror is that flat, multi panel mirror used for golf carts that tool bags started putting in their cars so they could watch themselves vape.
