    If this design really isn’t asshole design, then why are they still doing it like this? It’s pretty obviously supposed to look like it has more content than it does rn; and even if you do realize what’s going on, this makes it way harder to guess the amount of the contents. A number for gram amount is ok, but your brain really guesses by looking at the content, not the number.

      I once bought a tube of food grade sealant that looked like an effervescent aspirin/vitamin tube:

      Turns out it was several times larger, that was even stated in the volume specs, but you’re right, one does guesstimate based on a picture first.
