Is the new bottle identical to the bottle after the sip was taken? That would mean each copy has less juice than the one before it. So although the total amount of juice increases when a copy is made (at least until the sip is larger than the remaining juice), it would still run out eventually.

Good question. The same goes for the label. If I rip it away and burn it before drinking, would I then turn into a bottle that also doesn't have a label, making it even more dangerous to other people.

Bottle prime would still have the same amount though, and infinite copies of that (minus 1 drop) could be made of if

You could also refill the first bottle after each clone, then all cloned bottles would be full -2 sips.

But only if you could resist sipping it yourself before refilling.

Good point, I hadn't thought of that.

It would have less every time someone drinks from it.

oh... doy. I thought I had this figured out

Now these are the real questions

And even faster if you pour it into a glass like a decent human versus drinking straight from the bottle like my mom would say, “a goddam animal like your father”.

Once all of the fuller bottles are depleted, we're gonna see some exponential growth in the bottle population.
