Default what the bleep is wrong with 4K UHD cases

Ok, I can't be the only one who looks at the black 4K UHD cases with near disgust half the time. It's like the entire industry has lost the ability to make a solid case when it comes to 4K. I immediately noticed back in 2018 or so that the hubs for the regular black cases didn't snug AS firmly as the Blu-ray cases, and it's HORRIBLE for the 3-4 disc cases where they made the hubs on the inserts so small that it BARELY holds the disc even on a good day.

I bought a 10 pack of 4K UHD viva elite 2 disc cases and the hubs don't have that solid "snick" feeling when inserting a disc onto them. they hold solid enough, but my older Blu-ray cases have this really definitive "click" as it snaps onto the hub. Probably explains why I've had more loose discs in 4K cases than I ever did with Blu-ray.

heck, I now am officially only buying replacement blu-ray cases for my 4K cases that get broken etc. Ordered a 20 pack of 5 disc Blu-ray cases to put my Babylon 5 collection in and holy crap, every single one of thoseo hubs is firm and solid, while the same viva elite 4K multi disc holds feel like the only thing keeping the disc on the hub is pure will power. It's gotten SUPER annoying over the years to basically know that If I have 3+ disc 4K case I will HAVE to replace it if I don't want discs slipping off the hubs.

so what gives? how can they make blu-ray cases to this day that hold the discs securely, and all they need to do is change the color to black, but they can't seem to do that!?
