With most other tools where you have to buy one before you can buy another, they're both available in the extended toolbox and can be used on all the farms without having to be taken out for each individual farm. I really don't see why the brown sprinkler can't be available as well as the red one for people who've (a) paid for it and (b) want to use it. Farm Town is usually really good at not trying to impose a particular way of playing, and it'd be a shame to start now. I know the red sprinkler will do everything the brown sprinkler does and more besides, but even so, some people simply want to water their flowers.
