Assuming this effect existed, wouldn’t the memory of the water be polluted with all kind of things (as water is recycled all the time)? The specific water molecules you are ingesting probably spent considerable time (considering the age of the earth and all water on it) as saltwater. If longer exposure makes the memory stronger, you should be getting a lethal dose of salt quite easily

Yeah, this seems like a metric specifically chosen s.t. it makes intuitive sense to the average person AND it has a nice physical interpretation. Similar to how EU efficiency labels show power draw in W as kWh per 1000h of use

Real talk though, I wish everything was built s.t. you could disassemble it, understand how it works and repair most issues yourself. For more complex devices, that could mean swapping an entire module for a replacement rather than repairing it, which is something that everyone should be able to do. Selling things that are un-repairable on purpose should be a criminal offense in a world where resources and energy have to be conserved.

Check if your insurance refunds the cost. In Germany, it’s only paid directly by the insurance for kids, but many insurances refund a large portion of the cost if you get it before you’re 25-ish.
