The "Why Can't" Thread

Got a quick rant? Have an observation to share? Thought of an idea that all vendors should see?

I’ll start:

Why can’t you buy just the little phillips/allen tool in skate tools separately? I have a bunch of skate tools but far less of the little bastards who live in them and love to run away.

Why can’t someone make Caliber2/TB218 style truck hangers with 10mm axles that go end-to-end (instead of 8mm) possibly stepped to 8mm the last 37mm or so

Why can’t everyone use metric? Are some of you special or something?

Why isn’t there industry standards set in place? Where motor mounts and clamps can be switched between vendors at the convenience of the customer? Where all common truck profiles are available for all vendors?
