1st:
This is still game, custom belts are part of the fun.
Following your logic I would have to fly wingtip to wingtip next to 110s...

2nd:
I dont think those belts came ready from the factory. In the field you get: Links, ammo amd a machine.
So, if you want a custom belt, talk to the ground crew and there you go.

Rem: Based on swiss army experience, the link assembly machine we had must have been from WWI, looked like a manual coffee grinder, lol.
