I think you need to look at this from the perspective of a manufacturer. Are the benefits of your suggestion worth the additional cost? Your suggestion would require a second mold for each wall which would add, I imagine, 15-25% or more to the cost of making the kit. Would enough modelers consider it a feature worth paying more for? If it were a craftsman kit, perhaps, but for a common styrene building? I kind of doubt it.  For most folks, it really isn't that big a thing to paint details and I'm not sure the additional modeling benefit (finer detail) would be obvious enough to justify the added cost. I'm and N scaler and it doesn't really bother me to paint the fine details on a building. It's just part of the modeling process. Mike Tennent
