The cap pokes my face if I try to drink from it without tearing it off. When I tear it off there's then a sharp edge that pokes my hand every time I open or seal it.
With the bottles I have seen so far you can just push the cap a bit further so it is at an 180 degree angle and out of the way when drinking from the bottle.
Yep exactly they latch in a wide open position.
At this point there might still be experimental versions around, stuff which companies made and want to use up, but sooner than later you'll only see the good, successful versions on bottles. The rest is muscle memory and, if you don't have the physical/mechanical intelligence to figure out a latching mechanism yourself, learning by observing other people successfully not stabbing their faces.
Valid, I've mostly been pouring soda into glasses, and at least with my face, that doesn't happen.
This is such a bizarre design. I wonder why they don't just make a bit of a longer "leash" attaching the cap to the ring. Because then the cap wouldn't detached but it also wouldn't be annoyingly in the way like this.
Here in the US, I haven't seen these bottles yet, but I wonder if we'll be getting them at some point. :p
It's attached by two "leashes" and if you yank it a bit the other rips off making it pretty much what you described but it'll still tangle all over your face when you try to drink straight from the bottle and also now you have the sharp bit poking you every time you screw and unscrew the cap. This is not the only design we have. I just happen to shop at LIDL and their bottles are all like this. Some other designs are slightly better.
