They don't have to offer them, you don't have to buy them. Ya ya. Because other than Ice Bunnies on a Paradise Island, this is a very realistic life-like game eh? That's why no-one complained about the pointlessness of having a massive Computer Technology museum on a PAradise Island... True that shopping centres sell all theor christmas stuff at a discount on December 26 and then on December 27 start stocking Easter stuff, so they should be offering the Christmas Square at at discount now, not at a premium markup. Let's see - you need a road to build a structure, but even if every single road is demolished on the whole island, every single building keeps generating income. Let's see, if I demolish every single Hot Dog stand, every single food outlet, every single entertainment outlet, every single cheap accomodation, every single blade of grass, monument, tree, shrub, every single road, get rid of every souvenir gift shop, no where to buy an ice cream from, every castle attraction, museum, villa, after-hours Disco venue, nowhere to buy a cup of tea or coffee or pineapple juice from, and I just build Power sources and 75 Hotel Lux's back-to-back side-by side with no view from any room except a neighbours window 1 foot away (other than a few on the outer edge), then this otherwise-totally-realistic game continues to populate every single room every single 12-hours. That's like a million rooms filled twice a day with nothing to see or do on this island. But just don't show me a snow-theme because that's unrealistic. (Should tell that to the Arabs who built Ski Dubai - snow-park and skiing centre on their hot sandy desert, or the larger SkiWolrd in Netherlands... you should tell them how unrealistic they're being).

Speaking of Dubai Deserts and realism, did you see that Mission Impossible movie? I watched it on Imax film on the biggest screen in the world - amazing filmography. And they see a dust storm approaching from an hour away. Bearing in mind this is a regular occurence in Dubai and the locals obviously are well used to it and know when to pack up and duck for cover. Yet an hour later they show the storm hitting and none of the locals knew it was coming and you see umbrellas from stalls being blown away and dozens of local Arabs running around in a mad panic caught completely unawares trying to cover their faces and blindly trying to find shelter... Now that's realism!
