And what about the weaker material? Do you want to tell me the ABS becomes
harder over the years and that is the reason why new plates are deformed, when
I use my fingernails to take them apart and old ones are not?
I could make a material test here at job to find out about the hardeness of old
and new bricks. But I think this turns out to become ridiculous: just open your
eyes and take a look at bricks from the eighties to mid nineties annd compare
them to the new bricks (for e.g from 7171, which was quite horrible in my
eyes).
Regrds,
Ben
