Why don't we use (something like) Legos?

True, let's just say "it's like Lego" then, everyone likes Lego!

amelius Oct 18, 2023 View on HN

Lego or something that they can build.

Why not just... play with the LEGO?

Calling them Legos is torture enough

All the lego pieces I could never afford as a kid.

If you are in a better position now, then treat yourself to some genuine Lego, I get that the fun factor is similar, but do check out the engineering tolerance on the Lego bricks, it's been sustained over decades :)
