Worse, if you're not careful it can fall out of the cap and the parts will scatter.

So...did mine break? It was REALLY hard to remove. I don't know if there's a technique for it, but in the videos they just twisted it out in an angle so that's what I did. The bottom and the spring came out and they don't push back in or maybe I don't know how to put them back? Do I need a new cage? No matter how much I press, the bottom flies out. It goes in without the spring, but with the spring it flies out.
