I am starting to wonder if this is still true. Is it just a vocal minority who want it? I know some people have said that they don't really want it, they want a catalog, but...

More "how to make them," or really, how to make a stat block for them that is consistent with similarly derived stats from different TLs, different budgets, and observed reality. Calculating stats from specs in Car and Driver or what have you should yield similar results to what the VDS produces. There may also be a design sequence for weapons, robots, etc., but that is less certain.
