I think the main thing most AFOLs are worried about is unintentional changes,
and bad quality, as seen in the new Knights Bus.
Also I'd be interested:
1. Are there other colours you've classified "universal"?
2. What (if any) other colours may become "universal" in future?
3. How do you decide what colours become "universal"?
I realise you may not be able to answer these questions, but I'm still
interested if you can....

Well train track, yes, definitely. Guess I can't really think of any others.

Yes, I think we're all now agreed it was handled very badly, but at least it
looks like we all learned from it :)
