I think you’re right about the material properties. I read somewhere that Lego is really finicky about the specific “recipe” for their plastic bricks, and yes, as a result they can specify higher tolerances.
Lego got worse and worse over the years. Nowadays one can be happy if the colors on the bricks have the same shade. I have models like the Fiat 500 where tons of bricks with the same color have different shades.
There are tons of manufacturers with better quality, like Mould King. And even the cheaper ones like Blue Brixx got pretty close. As long as you don’t pick the cheapest chinese clones.
