I think it has to do with case lip expansion, and then sealing and fouling of moving internals. Powder chemistry may be involved.
Plus wear on the slides and extraction mechanisms.
IDK. Still learning.
I dislike loud noises..aka especially adverse surprises..in general..but the technology itself fascinates me. Another puzzle to figure out. For instance I was once looking into timed-delay rounds for the GAU-8 to be able to pepper an entire mountainside or remain whole as penetrative against armor. That tech already exists to my understanding. Probably stolen already.
