    That’s because historically what we call drinking has less to do with the contents and more to do with the container

      I am not disagreeing with you (while I am not convinced by your claim) but can you imagine how the “what is a woman?” Crowd would lose their marbles when you would say “whether it is eating or drinking, depends on the container and we 100% artificially decided what container is for eating or drinking” they would 100% claim that you don’t know what it means to eat.
