I dint know this and would have had to JTQ also. It just made me remember an old, old, old Dennis the Menace cartoon. Dennis is at the snack shack with his mom, and he's saying, "I want everything on my hot dog. Includin' a hamburger!"

I guess he didn't realize that a wishbone is a fairly fragile one, or that most dinosaur skeletons aren't complete.

Why do they bother to show even one unrandomized stack?

Because they like "variety" in the show.

And TPTB either don't recognize or don't care that there is a potential advantage to a contestant getting a glimpse at the unrandomized stack and that it's unfair for some contestants to get that when others don't.
