May be something related to child resistant packaging. From the CPSC FAQ on the Poison Prevention Packaging ACT "For a package to be child-resistant, at least 85% of tested children must not be able to open the package during the first 5 minutes of the test".https://www.cpsc.gov/FAQ/PPPA

The bad news is your home is gone and your child with it in the massive flameball. The good news is, while we can’t quite say your kid was gifted

I remember my wife asking our kid to open some "child-proof" packaging for her.
