Thats exactly what they are doing (human proofing) because there are a lot of humans out there that have to pull things out of packages in the stores.............catch my drift? see their point?
I have a relative that manges a Walmart and he told me it is for loss prevention. My wife read a story online about people going to the emergency room with deep lacerations needing stitches caused by this stuff. Another things that is aggravating is fisher price using about a dozen little wire ties to tie everything to the box.
As soon as I get something new with that stuff I go right for the kitchen shears. Plain scissors wont touch the stuff, and you have to cut around the whole thing and separate the two parts. You can't just cut a corner off and pull apart.
