There actually are reasons you want an alloy to break easily, street signs are designed to do this to minimise vehicle damage in a crash while still providing resistance to halt the vehicle as an example.

As for the cock rings, if you asked the metal shop owner that got commissioned for it, they'll get a thousand yard stare before commenting that it isn't even close to the most "intimate" custom order they've been paid for.

notably, harder metals tend to be more brittle, it's almost never desired, except for like, tempered glass, for example.
