The problem I have with the current system is the
same as yours, there are too many parts in each palatte that do not get used
in the model. These palatte sizes are too large and too expensive. 10
element bags do seem a bit small. But 25 or 50 element bags would be great.
Hopefully some fan input will improve the piece selection. Currently I do not
want to build anything and order it because I can just go and buy the designer
set.

Well, not necessarily. My Railroad Crossing (rats, it seems that there are no
URLs for individual models, so I can’t point you directly to it) model uses
parts from all five bricksets, yet the cost is $18.95. So I don’t think you’re
buying complete sets, but maybe bags from the designer sets (though this is pure
speculation, I haven’t seen any answer from LEGO yet about what the real part
sets are).
Best,
