one thing I find annoying with can openers in general is that cans seem to
be shrinking in metal thickness and some can openers can't deal with the

Yeah, that's been going on for close to 30 years now. That's how steel has
remained competitive first, with aluminum, and now with plastics.

Notice that the steel is a lot harder. Tuna cans are deep-drawn to a state
that's almost like heat-treated steel.
