The nitrogen is to keep them from going stale in oxygen. The amount of nitrogen across various chip manufacturers ranges from 19% gas all the way to 59%. That discrepancy range is where the psychology comes into play.
The gas is partially pack fill to keep them from getting crushed, obviously. My whole point was that it is significantly more gas than necessary for pack fill.
Fact is if you make the package look bigger, people think there’s more. There’s a reason we have laws about unnecessary slack fill. Nice try though, Dwight
Yes but it’s far more than necessary to protect the chips. Bag sizes are inflated for the psychology not the practicality
False. Bag sizes are relative to the amount of nitrogen needed to keep the chips from crushing.

Various studies have went into this type of packaging. The amount of gas used is optimal to ensure freshness and keep the chips from crumbling.
If that were the case there wouldn’t be such a massive variance in the amount used. I’d love to see these studies though since so many seem to exist
