I guess I should clarify things, since I appear to be in the camp of "castle
wall haters", which just ain't so. :)

I don't actively despise the castle walls or anything, I just don't need
more of them.  I have used them at various times, and will certainly use
them again, but I've got lots, and they're really a lot lower on my
"acquire" list than many other parts, especially bricks, plates, arches &
slopes.

I'm not saying they're bad, or that people out there don't want them - I'm
just saying *I* don't want anymore.  Which should not be construed as saying
I want to get rid of the ones I have.  There's a large gap between "enough"
and "too many".  :D

Given my druthers, I want more versatile parts, that's all.  Other folks are
different, which is good.

...Now, if LEGO produced a castle wall piece that didn't have a window...
