SanDisk microSD packaging overkill

If you'll forgive me, I'm going to get on my soapbox for a few seconds...

I recently had a faulty microSD card which I returned to SanDisk for replacement. I've had no problems with SanDisk in the past, and they were reasonably efficient at sorting out a replacement card. However, I was dumbfounded at the amount of packaging they used to return the card...

SanDisk microSD packaging mistake

The card was inside the white padded envelope (you can just see it sat on top of the envelope in the photo), which was inside the cardboard, which was taped up and wrapped with four plastic straps...

I think I might email their sustainability manager, if they have such a thing...
