It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Shouldn't that be on the bumper? Does rolling across the hood cause more injury than the initial impact?
Looks correct for an Imprezza hitting an adult, not so sure about the Forester hitting a child though...
Imprezza hitting a child isn't gonna be great either.
Yeah true, seems like the airbag should be in the bumper for that reason. Would still be a lot better than the Forester though...
I guess it can’t react to hitting a cyclist until an impact happens? Otherwise you’d have to worry about false deployments. It does seem like this could at least protect the head as a cyclist is thrown onto the car.
Grill and up is more important for protecting the really important human bits, ideally you want to lessen the impact by making the pedestrian roll over smoothly, it's why Nissan (and Suzuki, might be others) had hoods that prop up automatically. This is just the logical next step.
edit: completely forgot about Volvo. From the article
So it seems this airbag is intended for faster crashes.
