I think maybe because people can afford to throw household goods rather than rocks and rotten fruit? I’m counting lightweight, throwable anvils as household goods because the creators of Wizard have always been pretty lazy about stuff like that.
You’ve heard about “everything but the kitchen sink”? Well, now they’re throwing even that. Inflation is down, so they can afford to throw more stuff at King Id.
I’m sorry, they’ve got good enough aim and arm strength to be able to throw bricks, bowling balls, and sinks through the windows high up the castle walls… and even through a balistraria near the top of a tower… but they can’t hit the diminutive tyrant with a … (what is that thing… a garden trowel…?) … as he strolls out in the open in his garden?

Tomatoes are cheap. Rocks would (probably)be cheaper(although perhaps not in Id). They’re throwing more expensive stuff.
