I think that TLG is following a path that they feel will result in more
profit: some kids really like to build, but to sell more, TLG has to
appeal to other kids; kids who like to build somewhat, and then play
with what they've made.  I'm guessing TLG's marketing research people
are saying that this second group is larger, and potentially more
lucrative.

Well my limited empirical evidence would suggest otherwise. My 2 1/2 year old
son doesn't like to build, he likes to play (or take apart). One feature of
Town/Train Jr seems to be no working doors. Guess what he likes to best about
my Lego? Yes, you've guessed it, doors! He just loves to open and close the
doors.

You should repost this to lugnet.dear-lego.  Seriously.
