It does seem like the "drink more water" propaganda which has gripped the US for many years now, has been an extremely succesful campaign for getting more Americans to lessen their sugary drink intake in favour of water. That is objectively a good thing.

The downside is all the Americans preaching to everyone else in the world on the internet about it, even though most of us already didn't drink excessive amounts of sugary drinks.

Btw, the average adult drinks less than recommended.
