surprised they didn't do the 120-sided one...
actually not *that* surprised:
With a dihedral angle of ~164.9°, it's pretty much a sphere and you'll be waiting a long time for it to stop rolling (**)
Admittedly, by this criterion (sharpest dihedrals) they really should have chosen the pentagonal icositetrahedron (*) (dual to the snub cube) for 24 and the pentagonal hexacontahedron (*) (dual to the snub dodecahedron) for 60,.. these are the ones with the wacky pentagonal sides.
(*) and wow, do I, like, *never* remember these names.
