You've been caught on the wrong side of a homophone (same sounding words). It's not "plum crazy" it's "plumb crazy". An informal meaning of "plum" is excellent, hence, "plum job". The plum(b) to which you refer in "plum(b) crazy" relates to a plumb bob. It's a carpenter's tool, a small weight tied to a string used for measuring. As a plumb bob points downright to absolute center, it's informal meaning is downright or absolute. He is plumb crazy. ( He is absolutely crazy)

Obviously you have figured out why some ARs are 15s and others are 10s. Another word of caution. The Armalite and DPMS lowers are different. One has a arc between where the receiver extender screws in and the side of the receiver and the other has a straight cut. The upper with the straight cut will fit on either lower, leaving a small gap but the upper with the arced area there will only fit on a lower with arced lower. I don't remember which is which.
