When you open a bag of chips it immediately rips down the side, nearly spilling everything out and makes it nearly impossible to close up the bag so the chips don't get soggy?

Try tearing a 3M post-it note in half so you get 2 smaller sticky notes.
You can't do it because the grain of the paper tears at an angle.

In order to get small sticky notes, you have buy small sticky notes.

You can tear them in 2 useable pieces, but it won't look good. Use a blade or scissors for cleaner results.

The whole point of this thread was to call attention to clever tactics used by manufacturers to sort of force you to spend more money.
If you look around you, I'll bet you can find lots of other examples.

Apple products are notoriously famous for doing this.

My iPhone 5S became unusable and slow when I installed IOS 11.x. The IOS also took up so much memory I had little room for the 200+ photos I take every day for work. I don’t have a lot of apps on my phone and I had to delete them in order to use my phone. And on top of that, battery life went from all day to having to charge once or twice during the day. That became unsustainable for me. So I was forced to buy a new phone.
SCIENCE THAT CAN’T BE QUESTIONED IS PROPAGANDA!!!

I bet a paper cutter would make short work of at least a small stack of pot-its.
