The first time I noticed the less thick black pegs was in the 8448
Superstreet sensation and in the other technic sets from the same year
(8444, 8445, 8446). It seems to me that there are 4 different kinds of black
pegs that came out over time, but I'm not an expert in history of Lego :-)

for why some things seem to snap together better than
others.  Do these two types have the same part number?
Were the thicker ones introduced later? Are there three stud
long black ones with thin walls as well?

(I don't only grind bricks, but all sorts of other parts too! In
this instance, I was making a batch of black pegs with no
flange around the middle so they can attach half width parts
to either side of full width ones.)
