That was one of well-done things in the live action version Disney did a few years back. The Prince knew exactly who Cinderella was the moment he saw her. The glass slipper fitting was a formality and the Prince made it clear that he would have ignored it if it hadn't fit.

Try a pint of whiskey. Don't remember what I found at the bottom of that bottle
I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

Eh, I don't like it, but that's because I don't want glow in the dark trees.
I won't deny it's incredibly practical though. I can see municipalities lining roads with these trees both inside and outside the urban areas. The savings in electricity and maintenance would be rather substantial, although you also lose a bit of the 'shadowed by trees' feel.
