We have pretty harsh weather here which doesn't seem to destroy domestic plumbing. I've never heard of anyone having their pipes stolen from their house other than those under construction, and even then it's more often tools left onsite. As far as unsightly goes, I suppose it's what you're used to, but I think there are some very beautiful homes in Australia and they all have pipes exposed externally.
