the legend of zelda games are weird in that empty bottles are seen as a highly valuable thing

some kid comes and helps you collect all your escaped chickens--give them an empty bottle
some kid saves your sister's life by bringing her a healing potion you made--let them keep the bottle the potion was in, that's an adequate reward
some kid helps you get back the fragments of your soul that you sold to a bunch of ghosts in exchange for immense riches? a bottle is a good reward for that, it's not like you're literally made of money or anything oh wait you are

@Felthry This is especially weird because I am like, 99% sure that glassworks are a thing in the game, like, there are lanterns, there's abundant sand/silica around, windows, all that jazz.
but a glass bottle with a cap that can hold a fairy or a potion? "that's ancient lost technology that cannot ever be repeated and is lost to time and so this one with the mystical label of "Coca Cola" (clearly some kind of ancient Hyrulian prayer of Great Ritual Significance) is worth a million rupees"
