Its not unreasonable to expect that the switch works regardless of the weight of the keyring.

That's exactly right. If you're going to make a product, it had better be safe under expected conditions. A keyring with many keys might not be common, but it is not wildly abnormal.

Sort of like designing a set of stairs. It's not likely that three 400 lb people will be climbing those stairs at the same time. But you had better design for that possibility.

And when three 600 lb people cause it to colapse after 900,000 people use It with no prob, who should be blamed?
