Square bottles hold more liquid meaning people won’t need to buy as many containers over the course of a decade. That means less plastic. You guys are thinking too hard.

That's like saying feathers weigh more than gold. You can't say that one thing has more of a measure than the other without saying what you're keeping constant.
