Having been in a very price competitive environment for part of my career I know the extreme pressure the retail market must be suffering now. In recent years it must have got far worse.
I see this in bags and clothes where material is thinner or there are fewer pockets to save a bit more.
Just now I tried to clean my shoes. After struggling to open the polish with a knife I gave up as the rotatable clip that used to be there to open the lid had gone, presumably to save a little.
We are addicted to ever lower prices.
