I kinda like knowing ahead of time how many pieces will be in the set. It
helps me determine if the set is a good deal or not, especially sets on
clearance, or ones that I am not familiar with. (Using a rather subjective
price-to-piece ratio that is dependent on the type/sizes of the pieces and
their value to *ME*)
Also, if said law keeps them from picturing "alternate models" that use
pieces not in the box, this is an additional bonus. I know that I would be
upset of I couldn't build something on the box without having to buy
something else. And would be even more upset if I had to explain to a kid
why he/she can't build something on the box with the pieces in the box.
