(...) He would argue that the increase in the number of new types of pieces is actually an indication that the LEGO system is getting less flexible. But as you say, the system is designed so that every piece connects to at least one other piece (...) (13 years ago, 27-Feb-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) He says "LEGOs" which makes his work suspect right there. :) Not very rigorous. The paper is from 2001... the piece palette has improved somewhat since then. But generally I'm not sure he's drawing valid inferences/conclusions. LEGO elements (...) (13 years ago, 27-Feb-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Dr. Mark Changizi claims that LEGO sets have reached a point where most of the pieces no longer fit other pieces. Sound crazy? Wait - there's math...
