Why don't they make 4 wire Romex (plus ground). There are many 2 or 3 way switch circuits that need 4 wires plus the ground. 3 wire is all they sell. I can think of other cases where I could use 4 wires too. For example, I had to run two common strands of romex to a double light switch that also feeds an outlet. Two switched wires, one hot, one neutral. That's 4 wires. So now I have an illegal white wire controlling a light from a switch. Why not 4 wire romex with black, red, blue, and white. (patriotic too).
