I'm going to be unpopular and say that elastic definitely has a place in denim. It makes it more comfortable and reduces crouch blow outs.
But then I'm not into the fetish and my jeans don't look like this.
As an aside, I've got a pair of kevlar "skateboard" levis that I bought for the express purpose of playing with my kids on a whim in tkmax. They are full of all sorts of man made fibres (including 2% elastane) and are absolutely fucking ace. Asides from the hotter months I've worn them almost constantly and 2yrs on the crotch is still in tact, as are the knees. I need to find another pair for when these go.

crouch blow outs
Is that when you squat and fart?

That’s very specific situation. How many times have you played with your kids on a whim in TK Maxx since you bought the Jeans? And how many times that it happened did you happen to be wearing the jeans?
I suppose you can’t ever put them on on the assumption that you will be going to play with your kids in TK Maxx, because that wouldn’t be on a whim. Which was the express purpose you bought them for.
I guess in order to get any use out of them, you must carry them with you everywhere then examine your whimsy every time you pass a TK Maxx with your kids?
Do get changed in the street or nip into the changing rooms? Or always wear them under your normal jeans?
How long, usually, before someone says, “sir, I appreciate that it is only whimsy (and that you are appropriately attired) but this isn’t a playground… it’s TK Maxx. Look, there’s Teenslain buying pans!”
Either way, I admire you commitment to the right tool for the right job.

Stretch denim.
Especially when purchased in error, not knowing that such a stupid thing exists
