Failure rate of canning lids. Mostly Ball, but a couple of other makers, too. 6 out of 100 buckled.

Unrelated, but kind of related reply... this reminds me of how farmers keep getting more and more efficient by producing more out of the same land, using technology, etc. For example, corn farmers and bushels per acre... keep increasing in order to break even or make a profit.
