I think it's fair to say that LEGO's plans with regards to juniorized
sets are world-wide. If LEGO wanted to offer juniorized sets
for one market, and nonjuniorized sets for another, they would, just
as they have released Europe-only and US-only lines in the past.
So, let's not put the blame for juniorized sets on either the
European or American markets (and the children in each market).
