Have you really never had the misfortune of encountering one cracked in the carton?
In my experience there is usually a small pile of cartons with cracked eggs set off to the side of the shelf in the refrigerator in the store.
Those cartons are not meteor strike proof. I have bought cracked eggs in cartons several times before. That's when I started inspecting the contents before buying them.
They can crack before/while they get in the carton. Those cartons are handled by various people, transported under varying conditions. Even if they get to the shelf unscathed, any other customer might accidentally knock them off and just put them back like nothing happened.
It does happen from time to time. Now what? Is your world now flipped upside down? Are you gonna cry? Like a baby? Are you having a little baby cry now? About the cracked eggs? How nothing is perfect? How life is fragile? Are you crying like a tiny little baby now?
