Do people have an issue of losing the cap to their water?

No, it was an issue where people wouldnt recycle the pieces together.

Edit: It is incredibly fucking annoying to drink from now too

See that‘s the point I never got: Who tf does not keep them together? Like the cap‘s on the bottle, you remove it to drink/pour the liquid into a different container and put the cap back on. Why would I ever separate the bottle from the cap?

I swear that use to be the requirement to recycle them; remove the cap and cut off the tamper evident seal ring because they were made of dissimilar plastics and the caps weren't accepted.

Now I'm pretty sure everything goes through a massive shredder and is sorted with magnetism, eddy currants, and an optical system with air jets to seperate chunks.
