Now I don’t know what to think!
Cold water is much nicer to drink and IMO much better than coffee.
I live further north than most but not that close to the Arctic Circle (around 7-8 degrees further south), but it's not like I have that cold inside, we insolate our homes. If you live in the ice hotel I guess you don't need an isolated bottle (As long as you don't expose it to negative for too long). IMO a bottle is just really convenient compared to a glass of water which is very limited in capacity.
The vast majority of humanity lives very far away from the Arctic. The Arctic is one of the most desolate places on earth. Only around 4 million or 0,05376% of humanity live above the Arctic circle.
Bottles contain more water than most glasses and compared to glasses they can be used safely close to electronics and keep the water cool for longer.
Sure, I could go and fetch more from the tap but that's annoying and is something that will get in the way of me drinking water. Ice water is even more annoying with glasses because the ice melts faster and the glass will sweat a lot.
And no, I'm not in a developing country. There are only like 8 countries in total around 59-58° 34' N and none are really developing countries. Except Russia of course. The water in Estonia is apparently not the best and the USA apparently has shit water.
