   There are many interesting colors or pieces - In 8780 -- there’s a 2x2x3 dkGray brick with what looks like a small arched window in each side and some sort of beam that appears to connect into it.. That could be very interesting.

Unfortunately, it’s the legacy of Jack Stone:

I think the reason for all the juniorized parts is that it could be cheaper to produce and handle, say, one 1x2x5 than five 1x2s. Or, one BURP rock vs. the equivalent several dozen bricks. Perhaps TLC now believes that the overall size of the set is more important in the parent’s buying decision as compared to a high piece count.
