The material they are using on the goggle arms is just far too rigid and brittle for what it needs to do. Either they needed to use a different plastic or material on the arms, make the arms thicker (but less accurate then) , or make the arms out of perhaps, I don't know...metal? Something that can flex better?
Exactly. Even with the inherent disadvantages of the solutions you just listed, such as loss of accuracy or higher price, any one of those options is better than what we ended up with. It's such a huge flaw, these things are practically all already broken. It's only a matter of time for the ones that haven't broken yet.
