How about just one additional knob size? Arguably, the inventory
impact would be minimal.

Funny! ;-) But within the confines of the MOTM white on black
palette, which is quite attractive, so much more can be done at
limited or even zero marginal cost increase. Personally, I'm hoping
Moe's plans for future improvements will come to fruition.

And, for comparison/inspiration, one can see what has been done in
the past and currently with modulars at this website:
