They are not notoriously gimmicky, they are chatted about on the www by people who look to their gear's appearance rather than function.  (Aren't they?).  It is like short shutter releases, absurdly expensive straps and other similar stuff.

The 16-55 hood is as effective as any hood can be on a lens that goes out to 16mm.  Much bigger will vignette, much smaller is pointless.
