I don't get it.
It stays open, you can drink from it, you can pour from it, you can pour into it.
What action does the cap staying attached prevent, warranting its detachment?
I'm seriously asking. I don't get it. What inconvenience?
Many of the new bottle caps I encounter will actively push back into the closed position, meaning I have to keep them out of the way when pouring if I don't want to pour over the cap. Since I tend to encounter them on drink cartons rather than bottles, because I don't drink soda etc, it becomes even more annoying. Bottles you can turn whichever way, but drink cartons need to be kept at a certain angle for optimal pouring. Quite often the cap is in the way and there isn't really a nice place to put it.
This is even more frustrating because I never lost these caps anyway, I always threw them away with the packaging. I understand that it probably helps in the bigger picture, but for me personally it solves nothing and is incredibly annoying.
Edit: two examples
This one is fine, it snaps into a position that's handy and out of the way:
This one is very annoying. It'll stay in this position and requires constant force to keep out of this position. When opening or closing the packaging the attachment point also rotes, meaning it's always in the wrong place:
Funnily enough, I despise with every cell of my body the first cap. When opening the first time, it always create a mess by shooting liquid everywhere. And after that, it feels fo flimsy that it would break any second.
Hmmm yeah, now that you mention it I do remember a few occasions of launching soy milk throughout the kitchen. Still I prefer it over the second one though. After it's been opened once, it's much less in the way.
Wait, the Dutch Optimel brand doesn't have attached caps. I think? Or I just mindlessly rip the caps off so they are loose? It doesn't make any sense to have those be attached with an angle like that.
it's attached and no it doesn't make any sense and it sucks
