The reason has to do with perspective- a triangular arrangement provides the iPhone with 2D perspective capabilities versus the 1D provided by a horizontal or vertical arrangement. This should provide a better DOF estimation and more successful comp…

But the point of a titanium card would be for it to be noticeably different from other cards and I think weight is the only easy way. My Amazon card is metal and very noticeably heavier than a plastic card, but not enough to affect my wallet.
