The most painful Lego brick to step on is the one you have just stepped on.

It seems that the pre-90's Lego sets were easier underfoot as the bucket adapter and flower stalk are the only ones pictured that existed then. Have Lego sets become more troublesome underfoot?

No, if anything they're less painful now, because the edges of the blocks are always rounded, and the number of pieces is greater, so you're less likely to step on any given type.

Some of the original small windows had pretty sharp edges.
