Reminds me of the unbreakable East German glasses that they developed, ultra resistant thin glasses that could be dropped from table height onto a stone floor and wouldn't break 90% of the time. The inventors were puzzled when they tried to export the glasses and found out that no western distributor wanted to sell glasses which wouldn't break periodically
