Some of the "juniorized" parts are also done for various structural reasons.
I'd also point out that the BURP can not be made of other parts. There are
LEGO sets that utilize the hollow nature of the BURP. These sets could not
be built the same way with bricks.
I'm not really convinced juniorization is a useful term. It's all too often
just used as a derogatory term for a part the speaker feels is useless,
ignoring that there might be valid design reasons for that part (which may
include creating sets for younger kids).
