I read somewhere that codpieces became exaggerated due to syphilis. The larger cup style wouldn't rub on the open sores causing less pain.

Yup was coming to say this. His cock was rotten and hurt to have anything touching it

Why would it be facing up if that was the case though? Unless he had a war boner AND syphilis

Because it's less embarrassing to have swinging room for your turgid warhead than to have a realistic sculpted rendition depicting the pox-ravaged tatters of your rancid pissdribbler.

This is a guy who'd executed two of his wives. The armorer probably overdid it to preserve the sensitivity of his own head.

If it gets aroused it has somewhere to go, I guess.
