While this is true... to me it's a false equivalency. You don't find open pools of gas, stews, or acid to collect. You do find open water. I find it a little immersion breaking to be thirsty early game and walk past a pool of water that I can do nothing with.
Actually, back in the day, there was a lot of discussion about why when you ate your stew you didn't get a jar back. It was explained that it was a technical limitation. Generally people can accept technical limitations.
