Wouldn't it make more sense for the Lego man head to fit into alternating butt slots instead of the left one only? This way the centipede doesn't list to the left.

The better solution is to use a two-to-one flat adapter piece to make sure each person is centered behind the next.

Don't have that type of two-to-one in LEGO bricks. You'd need a 1x2 plate and then plug the head stud into the middle indexing pin of said plate.

LEGO should make one. And if not ᴛʜᴇɴ ᴡᴇ ꜱʜᴏᴜʟᴅ ᴩʀɪɴᴛ ᴏɴᴇ.

Why? The method described above already does the needed task perfectly, and without needing to design and produce a new part. Did you learn nothing from The Human Centipede (2009)?

Generally, because every new tool on the wall will have uses beyond its original function.

Cut a small cutout of the head's "o" and fit each head in between butt slots.
