Why Does Amazon Wrap Bubble Wrap In Bubble Wrap?

So what was the reason for wrapping the bubble wrap with more bubble wrap? Fellow Reddit user Dr_Dunk says that if the shipping box isn’t full, then it “won’t run through tape machines” properly. I guess it makes sense but still sounds very wasteful. BTW Amazon isn’t alone here. Apple has a similar shipping strategy. What do you think? Wasteful or necessary? Please post a comment below.
