Well killing birds is not a big thing in skyrim and if you look at most of the arrows not all of them have feathers. Just the way the material is carved like the ebony arrows the back part is flat and does not seem like a real feather is there. But if these feathers were more open in shops then yes that would be good to. The PC mod uses feathers but most people just use the console command to get them.
