Pen caps have holes in them for safety reasons—to prevent choking hazards.

If someone (especially a child) accidentally swallows a pen cap, the hole allows air to pass through, reducing the risk of suffocation. This design was introduced after cases of people choking on pen caps, and now many pen brands, including Bic, use this safety feature.

It also helps regulate air pressure inside the pen, preventing ink from drying out too quickly. This took me so long pls like
