I guess it's just part of why something as seemingly simple as a street corner trash can is such a challenging problem to solve. I wish I didn't need 500 lbs of safety features in my car but you need to account for bad actors, idiots on the road, and accidents. I appreciate when thought goes in to the worst-case misuses of everyday objects, even a trash can.

It also assumes that the household garbage dumper is going to carry their trash back to their house and wait for garbage day, when really they'll just drop their garbage back next to the trash can that it doesn't fit in. There's another solution to that problem, and they might have the wrong angle entirely here.
