One is illegal, highly unsafe and will never be used in reality, besides milking investors out of even more money and the other one reduces waste

How exactly does it “reduce” waste. The bottle is still plastic. The cap is still there. Now there’s a bit more plastic being used per bottle. Yay.

Plastic is not waste here, it's a recyclable resource. The issue has been that bottle caps wouldn't get recycled with the bottles. Now they do.

The main issue isn't lack of recycling, but waste in the environment.

You are probably right. I used the word waste as in wasted, but what this solves is trash. Doesn't really matter which bin it goes in for this to work.
