Is that true for sodastream too? Presumably.

I’d hate to have to pressurize a glass bottle. Seems like a not amazing plan in amateur hands even if many beverages come that way.

I have a SodaStream that uses a glass bottle. The bottle is fully enclosed in a metal shield while being pressurized to prevent injury if the bottle breaks. I've had it for years without any bottles breaking; the glass is quite thick.

Not an expert, but I would imagine the harder the plastic, the less of this you have.

Not if it's just the same plastic but thicker.
