I don't know if this is a one-off or a companywide change, but my pockets are much less bulky with only the one key and the smaller key tag!
I've had a couple rentals with a flexible plastic tag, but more often than not I still get the bulky wad of keys that hardly fits in my pocket. Gets ridiculous on some of them - two keys, two remotes, valet key and plastic ID tag. Due to the shape none of the keys will fit flush against the next so there are keys sticking out 120-degrees around the keyring at their most compressed position.
