I too despise the way they (manufacturers) handle this however you have to keep in mind that there are always government regulations, sometimes at multiple levels, that have to be followed. I imagine what they put on them is required and the text has to fit and sometimes on something small. This of course doesn't explain this for other products that have larger containers but I imagine the same machine(s) are used to do the text regardless of the packaging (regardless of it's size) and so instead of changing up font sizes they leave it as is using whatever is the smallest font that works on all products they make. Plants that produce the boxes/packaging used to box up and ship just about anything don't have different machines for each container size/type they make. They will typically have a few going and each will make 1 or more batches of a specific box/container and then they switch the machine up to do another type of box/container.
You can bet that the majority of them would rather you not read any of that info (there are a few more health conscious companies that do want you to read that stuff). There's way too many different sized and shaped containers to have a separate machine making each one.

I'm voting for number one; they don't want me to read the label.
The teeny tiniest print I find is for the ingredients list on cat food cans, where I want to know if it has actual fish in it or just guar gum and crab shells.

Its not just food. WD "My passport" serial number is so small a magnifying glass barley helped. Amazon receipt allowed me to get the right string - too bad WD registration splotch app still said was bad Id - just make things so small no one will ever get them right and corps will never have a liability to support stuff (as if it mattered) - also a piece of crap db lookup to confirm correct makes it set in stone like the mafia with cement galoshes

At least for food the required number of items that must be on a food label have increased. Like whether there are nuts or processed where nuts might have been used in something else.

i recently learned though do not recall where of a new feature in Visual Studio i.e. whilst hovering over multiple row of tabs one can scroll wheel them away up/return down . i enabled or installed this feature i do not recall which however upon repair of Visual Studio the feature disappeared along with all the previously installed extensions . i have since re-installed the extensions however i seek your kind assistance in learning how to enable/install this handy feature . the MS VS page re/ tabs was not helpful . thank you kindly .

It depends on which version of VS you're talking about. Multiple rows of tabs was introduced in VS2022. Before that, it can be handled by a 3rd party extension.
If in VS2022, you can go to the Tools menu and click Options. In the dialog that shows up, in the search box in the top left corner, type Tab. In the results on the left, click "Tabs and Windows". On the right, you'll see the option for "Show tabs in multiple rows". Enable that and click OK.
If you do not see that option, you'll have to use a 3rd party extension. The problem with that is only YOU are going to know which extension that was because there's a few of them that can provide that functionality. How you install and enable that is up to the vendor that wrote the extension.
