Arguing dense LEGO builds made of smaller parts are a rip-off is hilarious. Large elements have less reuse versatility & cost LEGO more to make. Larger parts mean less parts in a set, making a less exciting build. Price wouldn’t change, you’d just pay more for less value.
You would require a massive-sized build to give larger parts an interesting build process The 2007 MTT proves this, but don’t act like LEGO wouldn’t be charging you $200+ for it if it released today Yes, the 2025 MTT’s price is disgusting, but you can use its parts for anything

At its root, this is an issue LEGO themselves have caused. By offering so many sets where build & part value are there, but price is not, the general public is wired to call even the best values overpriced out of habit. Doesn’t matter if saying so is verifiably illogical
