So you do not like new specialized pieces, is that correct? Well, I
remember when the space theme appeared for the first time. The
magnitude of new specialized pieces was huge! And I loved it! The more
specialized pieces, the better. In my neighbourhood, the boy with the
most specialized space pieces was the coolest.
I've grown more mature by now, but I still like the introduction of some
new pieces, becuase it makes me able to build a wider range of models.

That doesn't make sense to me. To me, LEGO is a construction toy, not
collection items. I only buy LEGO to be able to build various models,
not to collect them. So I don't think LEGO should rerelease old sets
for the sake of some adult collectors. I hope this wasn't too
controversial.
