Don't care much for the polymer. Use it a lot in Eastern Europe.
The bills slip and slide together, several denominations are different sizes, which aggravates me to no end. Smaller bills are lost in pocket stashes of larger bills (and by larger I mean you have to have LARGE hands to maintain a grip on the width of the bills in order to count them. Then a smaller bill will slide out and the wind takes it down the sidewalk).
Could simply be a problem when you're dealing with bills of different lengths and widths. That said, it'* such a relief to get back to the U.*. and fold paper money together of one length and width.
Always wondered...is this weird size output done for the benefit of blind people? Strange, regardless.

I got your $5 today! This thing is cool.
So, take your pick, I can send you $5 American via Paypal(or snail mail) or I can up it to something more interesting...something I got while in the Army stationed in *. Korea...
It'* a 5000won note worth about $4.75 at current exchange rate.

Or did I make a forum error and mistakenly add a secondary issue about how the size of slippery cash can be problematic?
Far be it from me to violate any rules on expressing an opinion.

You were making a big issue out of not liking plastic bills because they are different sizes, and the small ones get lost. In Canada, we have plastic bills and they are all the same size. My point was the size difference in some of the EU bills has nothing to do with them being plastic. If I recall correctly, they were different sizes back when they were paper.
That is not an opinion, that is a fact.

For $5, I might let something slide.
