    Unfortunately, you’ve missed the point of my experiment, re earning my condescension. I’m demonstrating the terrible effect of air as a cushion against force. I’m not replicating shipping at all.

    It’s also quite revealing that the brands you named are substantially different in manufacturing process, resulting chips with significant difference in tensile strength and edge thickness. Those figures are far more relevant to broken chips than air.

    So here’s your next training course in chip packaging. Take ten chips and drop them onto various surfaces from waist height. Drop them vertically and horizontally. Then put individual chips on bags with varying amounts of air and replicate. Then multiple chips. Have your parents help you write up the results and share with all your {online} friends!

      Nah, you’re just a stupid teen trying to sound smart. And if you are an adult then bye goodness do I feel bad for your immaturity.

      Have fun with that, but your ideas are stupid because more air does protect the chips from the actual forces and stresses they will experience while being shipped. None of your hypothetical scenarios are even close to the real world in terms of the forces and stresses experienced.

        I don’t have a condescending word for the kind of person who believes more = better without comprehending the basic concept of reality. Thankfully, I don’t need one as Darwinism ensures there aren’t many of you around.

          Well published doctors with PhDs in Chemistry and over a decade of academic experience? You’re right, there aren’t a lot of us around.

            Ooh internet credentials! So awesome. And an unrelated field? Mmm very intimidated I’m sure. You’re an idiot if you don’t recognise the shrinkflation. Regardless of your claims.
