Not that this makes it "wrong" but aluminum cans are also plastic cans, they have a liner on the inside of the metal layer that prevents the acidic soda from corroding things and affecting the flavor. Here's a quick demo of it. While it doesn't prevent the Al from being recycled it is single-use plastic, the liner burns off when the can is melted down. Glass has no such need for the liner.

You know what the alternatives are, right? either we have two mouths, or we speak with our nostrils and the silent, gaping hole below only unhinges for the consumption of organic matter.
