There are a number of things retarted around this invention. #1: How do you carry it to your seat? Well, you probably have to hold the saucer not the cup, so now you have to worry about the cup sliding off the saucer. Sure there is a ridge to hold the cup in place and you would have to tilt it pretty far for the cup to slide off, but some of us have some shakes, you know? Ok so you can hold it by the saucer but now your coffee balancing skills are a little off, I'm not sure why, but if the cup is filled high you are more likely to spill it if you try to balance it on a plate compared to hold the cup in your hand. Fine, so carrying it to your table was a little nerve racking, but you made it back ok only spilling a few drops into the saucer. But your coffee is hot and you did fill it up high and you want to taste it so you try to pick the thing up with the little handle and...the thing is heavy. You are trying to pick up this heavy thing with a dainty little finger hole on the side and well your finger hurts. Your finger hurts but your thumb still has to push down harder because your finger grip is getting weak. You are worried about the hole thing just rolling forward around your finger, you try to brace the thing more with pressure from your ring finger below. Before you've had a sip you've spilt a little more and have gotten the shakes: drinking coffee like this is really stressful.
