Just out of curosity, what is the objection to a very low stress part such as Lee's excellant and unique seating die cap being plastic? Or aluminum for that matter?
It's just... different. It stands out. Likely doesn't make a lot of difference, but it still looks cheap and it doesn't inspire confidence.

You could call Lee and ask them why they changed it. Obviously, they felt there was a reason to quit using that plastic plug, maybe they'll share.

It's not all that different than the plastic MSH that some companies are putting on 1911 pistols these days. (Colt, Kimber, others?) I don't care for it there, either, but it definitely does work properly.
