I notice this filter appears to have a glued seam?

I'm wondering if the few media issues (mine included) have been related to the metal crimped seam change.
 
I dunno how Motorcraft does it.. They continue to put out a great oil filter for a very good price and not to mention it holds up very very well, better then filters that cost 2x or even 3x the $.
