To only buy one shape of pasta?

I'm tidying up the kitchen cupboards. There are currently 6 mostly-empty bags, each with a different shape of pasta. WIBU to only ever buy a single shape from now on? And if so, which shape is best? I'm thinking of going for fusilli.

Fusilli in my house! And only fusilli. Except for the lasagne sheets but the kids don’t bite that as pasta when it’s hidden inside like that Grin

Bite?! I meant class or something similar, no idea what my brain is doing today ...

This is quite useful. I found it on the BBC food website. Pasta ending in 'ini' is a smaller version of a particular shape, and pasta ending in 'oni' is a larger version of a particular shape. For example, fusillini (smallest twist), fusilli (medium twist), fusillioni (largest twist)

When I have lots of pasta scraps I give it all to the kids or smash it all up for soup. I hate overcooked pasta so wouldn’t mix it all up for me.
