New style MOT more nitpicky?

Has the MOT, in its change from green to white, become more nit-picky? I have a
two-door, occasional four convertible. The doors are therefore very wide, and
I'm quite disabled, so I have to open them fully in order to get in and out. In
order to dissuade people from parking too close, I have disabled stickers on the
car. They're quite small, about 1.5 inches square, in each top corner of the
windscreen, on the sides and on the back.

The car has been through two MOTs with no comment, but this year, in its third,
I got a pass but also a warning about obstruction of vision on the driver's
side. It can only be the disabled sticker, and in order for it to be an
obstruction I'd have to be looking up at house and tree tops while driving.

Any comments?
