There are already tons of colors, and TLC seems to be adding more every day. But why bother modifying them by small (or large) variations? They make MOCs look bad, sorting more hell, and people angry.

Since “compatibility” is such a Lego mantra, TLC should just stick with the colors as they are. Isn’t this pretty sensible?

Good luck with the continuing onslaught,

Roy
