Several reasons:
- a normal head doesn't have a rod hole
- the rod hole in the pen pieces is rod diameter the whole thickness of
the brick, which makes for a sturdier pen
- the pen pieces are not exactly LEGO dimensions (which I actually think
is bad, but given that, the heads should match the other pieces - there
is value to the pieces being larger to make a sturdier pen, but it would
have been nice if they were 2x2x4 plates thick so they would integrate
better with regular LEGO elements.
