Sippy Cup Humor

Nicholas' new sippy cups (we had to ditch a couple that got forgotten about full of milk in his backpack for a few days--yes, gross) are advertised as the "#1 Spill-Proof Cup." Inside one of the cups there is a sheet with washing instructions, diagrams illustrating how to do tricky things like put the lid on, as well as a list of the things you have to do to get this "100% spill-proof" guarantee they have on the packaging.

Number 4 on this list: "Cups should be kept upright to ensure 100% spill-proof performance."

So now the question is, are they really that dumb, were they trying to be funny, or is this their way of protecting themselves against a barrage of lawsuits over spilled milk?
