The fundamental problem, if the brake is to be mounted to the fork crown, is that a sidepull must have arm lengths at least vaguely proportional to tire size. That reduces the mechanical advantage of the caliper, requiring more hand force for a given deceleration. That's the fact that originally caused me to choose cantilevers.

Nothing wrong with V brakes or cantilevers, but people do have their preferences and there are tradeoffs so the selection is and has been quite broad.
ISTM that center pull brakes, or their variants, could have less of that problem, since their arm pivots can be lower than their mounting point. But they're not currently fashionable.
