All 1x3 plates were brown

All 1x2 grill tiles were blue

Something similar can be seen in most recent sets, ie. the MTT and the
ATT.

I suppose the LEGO Company manufactures the sets this way to cut
costs: If you can cut down the part type/colour variations there is in

the set prior to shipment.  It will also simplify the process of
making the parts needed for the sets, I suppose.
