Okay sure I can get behind that. I guess I just like the handle to be a consistent shape because I like to have some precision at the back too, palm or pinky.

I use my fingers I imagine how you would, but then after a gap wouldn’t you typically have the end of the cutlery resting into or against your palm? At least occasionally, depending on what you’re doing with the cutlery. I love that we’re discussing this, by the way.

I want 2’s head on 5’s body. 2’s body looks better than most but it’s too big for me, looks like it’d have bad palm feel.

This as exactly my thought. It’s not crazy to imagine this when I know for a fact systems exist in supermarkets to calculate optimal prices in different stores, based on the size of the store, the demographics of the area it’s in etc

Fair enough, thank you for clarifying! ‘replication crisis’ were the first words in my head as soon as I saw the top line of your comment haha.

Not OP, but that’s what we did in the UK too… I’m honestly confused reading the post and the comments calling California out on this. I must be misunderstanding something because we did the same thing and it really, really worked. The UK led the charge on the concept of ‘nudges’ like this and it’s been successful and widely praised. We still have thick plastic bags that you buy for 10p, but most people really do keep some on hand for most situations so plastic dumping has been significantly reduced.
