This is new information to me.  I never worried about dents, but I also use up my
canned goods rather quickly and rotate them with each shopping trip.  In all the
time I have used canned goods, I've never had home canned go bad, and store bought
only twice (once it buldged, and once it just smelled terrible).  Anyway, that was
never part of the dogma that was passed to me, but on hearing the reason, it makes
sense.
