Perhaps you are referring to my comment thatin which I was alluding to your analysis here: ***Are you referencing something else I said? I don't see where I suggested you were arguing that water pressure doesn't count but air pressure does.***So, why does the bag stop with precisely 10 minutes of air, every time, but expand to accept its maximum volume of water, and burst? It seems reasonable to consider the possibility that it also caps the amount of water it lets flood in, given that we accept it always takes in the precise amount of air required to sustain whatever living creature is placed within - be it a full sized human or a tiny little mouse - for precisely 10 minutes.And I suppose we may as well dismiss air pressure. It doesn't really do anything, does it? Certainly the airlines don't use it for anything, right? It's not like heating the air in a container to make it expand could allow weights to be raised above the ground, is it? There's certainly no real productive use anyone could make out of air pressure in the real world, so why should it matter in game, I suppose.</blockquote>
