Re-stuffing caps

I envy you. It seems over the last 50 years or so I have lost the ability to recognize where the engineers made shortcuts in order to increase the bottom line. But other people's perspectives are certainly interesting. They actually helped me in arriving at a conclusion to my original question.

And I won't even respond to the other individual's comments because not only is it non-productive and serves no purpose, but they appear to have their own agenda: "look what I can do".

I believe this thread should conclude now.
