You should take heart from the fact that this phenomenon has slowed a GREAT deal
in recent times, the number of possible renumbers is way way down, and number
accuracy is way up.
TLG doesn't tend to switch from solid to hollow studs anymore, and they're also
really good (TOO good, actually) at changing the design number when mould
changes occur (Peeron is actually a generation behind on the race helmet and the
1x4 lift arm, for instance).
Most if not all of these issues are captured by TLG (again, perhaps TOO well)
via item numbers. But that's a whole other can of worms. A much LARGER and
more concerning one, actually. THAT number easily dwarfs the issues you're
talking about.
But feel better about ~Moved-to :wink:
