Why? People offer advice all the time.
What exactly is wrong with putting up a web page with a list of things to
consider when doing this, and a sample excel spreadsheet? That doesn't seem like
much of a risk to me. If I had time and interest I'd do it but I don't (I never
have co-workers around me long enough for this scheme to work). Nothing is
stopping YOU from doing it though.

If this is an independent, fan run thing, nothing.
If on the other hand, after a fan did it, LEGO embraced it (via link or via
taking the spreadsheet on to their site or whatever), why then, they could give
a code and ask that people put it into their orders. Make the code worth
something (multiple free trucks instead of just one per order, I don't know) so
that people will use it, and then measure how many do.
I read over your response to Scott, and I am afraid that what you are suggesting
there is more work for LEGO than this idea is.
