Vertical Board and Batten on a Cape Cod?

I have a basic Levittown-style Cape Cod that needs new siding. For kicks, I was toying with the idea of vertical board and batten cedar siding, so I searched all my go-to design sites for examples. I could not find a single Cape Cod with vert board and batten.

Is there a good reason for this? Is this BAD idea? Would it create some sort of mongrel eyesore? I'm looking for a sanity check and would welcome design opinions regarding board and batten on this style house.
