Why Red and Blue?

In commander some of the best artifact support is in Red and Blue making the combo somewhat of a godsend in the eyes of a person who wants to play them.

Why Nin?

Nin's ability works incredibly well one other people's creatures either when you are trying to be diplomatic or when you just need something removed. The real key Nin's charm lies in her ability to also be able to target your own creatures. With indestructible artifact creatures Nin's ability brings only value.

Why no Stuffy Doll?

Yes, the combo is very nice. No, I will be running it. The value that Nin offers is great as it is and I don't think it needs more tacked on.
