It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

God i hate when companies green wash. Anyone who thinks switching from carboard shipping to returnable shipping is "greener" doesnt know what they are talking about. They rely on people to not know any better so they can make these dumb claims. Sure end of life is lower but scope 3 emissions will be doubled overall.
You would have a much lower carbon emission if you just recycled it properly than to ship it back.
Returnable via an extra shipping?? Yeah that's absolute greenwash, it's a bulky rigid EMPTY plastic box to be shipped back filling up more trucks and planes
Edit: Sorry, just read that they fold down. That's better, but I still doubt that the extra traveling it has to do is worth it compared to local recycling. I'd prefer a push toward monomaterial packaging (either all paper or all plastic, e.g. no metal clips or hard to remove plastic tape that end up in the paper recycling bins)
