RANT: Anyone else annoyed with the proliferation of "Rubber bands" to hold items?

Let’s also acknowledge that Velcro can also be sub-par over the long-term. I can’t even count how many seat bags I’ve had to replace, not because the zipper failed or bag ripped but because the velcro strap that held the bag to the saddle rails stopped working from being opened and closed repeatedly. Give me a ratchet, or a snap, or something more resilient, please.
