I think you put your finger on it. The plating is very brittle, and when it cracks, the crack follows right into the brass.

The plating also tends to flake, leaving almost microscopic chips in your size die - which imbed in the steel and are impossible to get out. It ruins the die.

You can read between the lines. I don't like nickle cases at all.
