Actually no. The lights on the voyage are on the bottom (shorter side). The lights on the oasis are on the right (longer side), so there needs to be more of them. I'm sure Amazon experimented with how many lights were needed to get acceptable result. It was not overkill.

Also, light cones, if they bother you, are less objectionable when they are on the bottom, which is mostly taken up by footer text. It's more important to minimize any light cones when they are on the side.
