That’s my guess. I get the impression that their “switch to eco friendly plastic” initiative isn’t going well, this might be an attempt to stretch the timeline (by using resold bricks they can manufacture fewer new ones). But totally an uninformed guess.

I’ve used most of the options for this and regardless of the tool I do a terrible job of actually coming back and reading anything in them.
