You have to be a bit of a mechanical engineer to really pack things well. The problem here was most likely that the packing method did not prevent pressure from being applied against the fragile safety lens. Probably should have been covered with something very stiff.

By the way, how can a "safety" lens be so fragile?

I think peanuts between an inner and outer box are good. As far as the packing inside the inner box goes -- that's where you have to pay attention to how to keep pressure off fragile things like speaker grills, speaker cones, soft back covers, etc.
