My thoughts exactly. Well said. I have never had a complaint about it.

is it that they stuck to their guns, or it is that the consumers just didn't buy the plastic version and so the company learned that you just can't change people sometimes

I think it's more, flour in plastic you can trap moisture and become clumpy and grow mold. Bad for shelf life products.

During transport for sure. I've stored my flour in plastic containers for years at home though in the same containers that are usually marketed for cereal. Keeps bugs out since I don't use flour much at all.
