Pop-up tissue packaging: Has it gotten worse over the years?

You may think this is a silly question (wouldn’t be my first one), but it’s an issue that’s been bugging me for a long time.

I recall that in years past pop-up tissue did just that, popped up without nudging. Now plies of tissue seems to get easily stuck in the box and have to be fished out, which often causes multiple plies to come out at the same time. I find this terribly annoying. I’m not talking about just cheap store brands; even Kleenex brand, which seems to come in the best (i.e., firmest) packaging, does the same thing.

My suspicion is that tissue packaging in general has become flimsier, and/or the slot design at the top of the box has somehow been changed. Is this my imagination or has anyone else encountered the problem?
