What changed the trend to have gutters as a standard on houses?
Gutters are still a rare thing to see on houses in most of the country. It is only here and places near the coast that gutters are a required building code. In much of the country, building codes still do not require gutters in housing construction, since there is not as much heavy rainfall as we have here near the Coast. As close as Eastern Oregon this is the case, where they only get a few inches of rain a year. So if you look around in those areas, you will see that most homes do not have gutters.
