I don't have a specific opinion either way, but in my opinion the 3D box
is currently what makes the mode line stand out from buffer text.
Remove it (or even replace it with a flat box), and that contrast is
immediately lost.
N.B. that we already have themes which people who want a mode line
without a raised box can use, such as the several modus themes that come
with Emacs.
