The catch and hook are only cheese if abused.
The sleeve, how else do you suggest? It’s essential and works, u less you don’t look after it.
The rollers, yeah I hear that, they really need to stick the bearing wheel on there.
B75, I like and dislike it, it sells though and does open a new price point.
The nickel has only had a few small runs and now no more, but agree too many limited editions for my liking.
You ridden an electric Brompton? We have one and think it’s great. What don’t you like?

Things to add to your list: handlebar catch (made of cheese), main roller wheels (they don't work), sleeve/insert (why?!), front axle hook (again, cheese)...
B75 - Regressive manufacturing (old levers, no mudguards), Endless limited editions (which are repeated, think nickel) and the Brompton electric which took nigh on 14 years to develop, mooted as the next big thing but is not really great for the price tag. Halfords tie up (...)
CSB. I actually really like Bromptons (I don't work for a dealership and neither am I wanting to sell you anything)
