Usually I would agree with the statement that there are 2 different
types of 1x2 bricks. But the clear bricks have undergone so many
different metamorphosis over the last 40 years (there was even a long
period when they had the same posts underneath, and hence were the same
as the non-clear 1x2's), that I think that we can keep them itemized as
one piece, even though they are structurally slightly different. After
all they are still 1x2 bricks.
