Face it. They're not a good do-all water bottle. They have niche uses where they're very good, sure, but they are by no means a straight upgrade over any other water bottle.
I also don't understand how they're as fragile as they are. It's the same thickness of the same plastic used in Camelbak bladders welded together in the same way, yet I can fucking sit on one a bare Camelbak bladder and it won't pop.
