Not at all. I worked apart time job delivering parcels that were scanned with a specialized bar code scanner. Most of the parcels had dual barcode/QR codes for the tracking number. You would be surprised how much damage could be done to the QR codes before they were unreadable. Even if the QR code had small folds over itself the codes would still read. The barcodes were unreadable with the slightest amount of damage or ink bleed.
Good to know. I must have been misled back in lockdown days when some people sabotaged QR codes on purpose by adding a few dots with permanent markers.
When you generate a QR code you can choose the level of redundancy. So a code can be generated that is super picky and needs to be perfect to scan, or one can be generated that can be read even when badly damaged.

Are there studies on how that might affect logistics?
