True, and a lot of them are interchangeable.

Transformers team, please notice this.

The recent experimenting with extra heads packed in is encouraging, and I wish they'd do it more (I would have loved for the Retro G1 Bumblebee to have come with both the Bumblebee head and the Goldbug head for your choice of cartoon or toy accuracy). I am 100% behind the idea of standardized head connections wherever possible.

It shouldn't take that much experimenting. Just pick a standardized head connection. It doesn't have to be the tested and proven theoretically ideal choice. Just pick something and call it settled.

One of my pet peeves with Bandai's Dragon Stars line is that different figures of the same character representing the same base body type will be moulded in such a way that the balljoints on the heads aren't interchangeable.

I don't know Bandai, why WOULD I like to swap heads on Dragon Ball figures? Any ideas?

It's weird that this is still a thing in the age of CAD. There is no need to start from scratch on every little piece. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.
