I recently bought the Neuvi cup and it has a strainer so im like "waow maybe it is time to stop being a loser who survives off purely tea bags" but also i am a creature of habit and also lazy
I have paper tea filters and do loose leaf (they can compost) and it's made me a tea snob. The quality is wonderful and it's not really any pricier or slower
Ah ha it is a matter of that extra step or two that turns me off versus having a tea bag I can just drop into a cup. Like this is definitely a convenience of someone who often only leaves their room for a few minutes, which is more mental than anything.
