Okay I overlooked that it's a ceramic blade, but consider for example the Workpro button lock two pack that comes with 10 blades. 12 blades, reversible so 24. I'd expect that to last with the metal construction whereas this is a simple plastic shell.
One can tout the safety feature like rounded tip but the most basic thing is forcing a cut once it's gotten dull. If it takes longer to dull it is more likely to go unnoticed because it's gradual especially if it's believed that's the same as never. With this design you're also limited to a pinch grip instead of a full handle where you're less likely to slip. I don't imagine people who work in a warehouse needing to cut a lot of boxes go for something like this.
Given that price it's no doubt a good choice in some situations where you're not going to have it wear out for a really long time because of the number of boxes you need to cut, but with so many people getting used to having stuff delivered today post Covid I don't see it for the most part. The fact that people don't want to think that much about it pre purchase probably just translates to how likely they are to toss it once the blade is worn. Just resort to up and down votes to validate or invalidate instead of qualifying for the situation.
