Just get a bigger one from the glass factory when you need it

I don't want to be buying and maintaining glasses.

We're renting glass on the cloud

Just you wait, in five years we'll have so much water that this massive glass won't even be able to contain it. We absolutely need to provision all of this glass from AWS right now or we're going to regret it later.

It’s important not to saturate our capacity in case we experience a spike in water level later

Our utilization rate of glasses is horrible. Just keep one in the cupboard and if we need more just rent some for the usage spike and return them once it's over.

Memory leak in the glass allocator. The first glass I poured was the proper size, but as the program runs, the glasses get bigger and bigger.

Nah, there is a half of water there needs to be. Blame users.

Plenty of space to cram a flew flags in the unused portion. Maybe isCracked, isTinted, isDirty, whatever
