If I just opened a new window factory, I'd absolutely be interested in as many windows breaking as possible, so I can sell more products. It would make a lot more economic sense for me to produce cheap, thin windows: I need less raw material to produce them and they will break more easily, giving me more opportunity to sell replacements.
