    I had a feeling it’d math out something like that if I opened my fat mouth, lol

    I do wonder if thickness of the walls or lid/bottom does have an effect, though, as there must be some reason they make these weird ass cans

      The lid uses more aluminum than the rest of the can, making that smaller will have a bigger impact than the height of the can.

      there must be some reason

      Just a marketing trick IIRC, since energy drinks got popular and beer cans got unpopular among gen z.

        True, look at the seltzer market for instance.

      pretty sure it just lets them fit more cans into the same box for shipping, same logic as how you can pack more sand into a box than you can pebbles
