That sounds like clutching at straws while not really showing how that'd make a significant difference to anything.

Make all glasses recyclable. Probably more important but less marketable for a new startup idea...

A friend used to work in a student bar as a bartender. Broken glass was legitimately a safety issue. Drunken people can cut themselves quite creatively, including severed sinews.

Ironically, most of his patrons were medical students.

I don't think it is "clutching at straws" for a bar to want glasses that break less frequently, causing fewer safety concerns, and to be prepared to pay the extra, but whatever.
