Bright rooms are inviting, and I have not heard that rooms at the end of the building were too bright
Not that, but especially living/dining rooms where there are hardly any possibilities left to place a cabinet or a chest of drawers, I have seen more often.
For example, I also do not want a living room couch without at least some wall space behind it. In my opinion, you don't feel really comfortable then.
Another argument against overly large windows is privacy from the outside, for example when you already have the lights on in the evening but the blinds are still up.
