What is the purpose of the complex cut-outs on the mounting point for the rear (and front, in other pictures of the same vehicle) numberplates, on this Jaguar F-Type?

Do any other models come with this type of feature, or is it particular to this model? I don't recall seeing many cars with their plates removed.

It is quite common to see such cutouts on the backs of licence plate frames.

The actual pattern may differ, but the purpose for the cutouts is to accommodate mounting points of different dimensions.

As a side, I don't think this is something manufacturer-specific; more often than not dealerships have to source the plate frames to accommodate the licence plate dimensions that are standard to their region.
