Eli5 why can’t you make a “Prince Ruperts drop” without a tail to have no vulnerabilities.

I don’t think there’s anything that prevents creating a completely round prince Rupert drop. It’s just that it would be expensive and difficult to create. One way would be to suspend a marble of glass suspended by jets of heated air until the entire ball reaches the appropriate temperature. Then switch off the jets and have the ball fall into a container of cold water.
