They are packed in their individually separated holes within their containers for a very good reason. Throwing a few thousand in a bucket is a REALLY BAD idea. Individually primers are not very dangerous, a few thousand going up at once would be another matter entirely.
If the primers are kept separated at all times then they are not able to communicate. Having them in contact allows them to become part of the collective and adjust their ignition parameters to follow a more synchronized pattern. I’ve had several 0.7 moa hunting rifles that now shoot in the 2’s because the primers are allowed to communicate their ignition sequence parameters.
