'scuse me?  I thought kids were supposed to have *fun* with LEGO first, not
suffer through character-building exercises.

But I tend to agree with Fredrick's explanation, anyway.  The fewer
part-color combinations there are, the simpler (cheaper) the packing
process is for TLC.  They've got to set up a different feeder for each
part-color, so if there are fewer combinations, that's fewer feeders, and a
cheaper packing line.
