Why not make it 4 (12, 22, 32, etc).

     You mean 24, right?  ;P

Reasoning: make "ground level" 2 over the baseplate... to allow texture on
the moon...

Yea, I know its a pain... but the end result would be purdier :-)

     Not necessarily.  First of all, you'd have to incorporate the textured
edges into the Moonbase Standard, which isn't as easy as it sounds.  Aside from
that, the texture would run the risk of looking somewhat patterned, as the
shapes of the edges would form a predictable pattern (imagine what it would look
like if the outer two studs of every plate had to be flat all the way
around...).  Also, what makes you think lunar developers wouldn't plow
everything flat like they do on a regular basis here on earth?
