The 60kg optimum weight for tea mule explanation always made the most sense to me. I also like the seven sons story behind the 7 cakes in a tong.

These days it's actually easier for shipping to press into bricks. You get more tea in a smaller physical space. International shipping of cakes/beengs often damages the edges. In my experience at least.
