"Could even be as simple as the wood materials that that are a primary
component is different then 10/15 years ago."

Jimbo,

Though the general discussion is watercolor papers vs coated papers and
therefore, on the coated side of the discussion, does include some papers
made from wood pulp we aren't really talking about wood pulp papers.

Watercolor papers are made from cotton, not wood, and those manufacturers
who have been in the business, some for 500 years or more, know precisely
what they are doing when selecting raw materials.
