Well, as of the past few years, lacquering has become more refined. Look at the things Leigh does with lacquering, for instance.

Also, silvering is no longer only on pro horns. Therefore, the old mystique of silver is not there anymore, in my opinion.

I also think the general quality of silver on the mainstream horns today aren't as beautiful as the older silver horns. My opinion, though.
