I wonder if the packaging is so tough to protect the item in shipping. Looking at most blister packs, the are shaped as a bubble of protection around the item.

There was a detailed article in the newspaper about thiis problem, and much of the pakaging design is due to long shipping from places like China, so it has to be sturdy. Anti-theft is also a primary reason.
