Arguably, "card stock" is well and gone in most places.
. Most of the time even at the 1K bag check counter, I get the lovely thermal paper passes.
Either way, not to be overly critical, but agreed - OP's preferences will not be applicable much longer. Like it or not the world went digital years ago, I'm actually rather surprised that paper BPs are still a thing post-COVID. They killed everything else that involved a personal touch...
