    But then this cup requires (approximately) ten times the amount of water to clean than the average cup.

      Ah, point made. The solution is to shatter the cup against my diabetic monitor, toss it into another sprawling enormous landfill and drop ship another cheap replacement.

        See that’s the thing, usually the mugs that require hand washing are the cheap drop shipped crap

        Mugs that are dishwasher safe are so because the manufacturer spent the extra 0.0003 cents per mug for the extra sealant layer to protect the artwork against it and tested it to ensure it can stand up to the dishwasher and started with quality materials to begin with

        Those cheap crap mugs skimp out on that layer or 2, testing and use the cheapest base materials they can find

        The solution is to use it as a decoration piece
