It's more interesting to watch how Coca Cola deals with this problem - they can't really easily go from 0.5L to 0.450L (not a problem for beer manufacturers), so they just introduced 350 mln new bottle that costs almost the same as 0.5L and looks like a bit shrunk version, easy to make mistake

But that will not be about commodity price inflation for the drink ingredients (I expect), as the ingredient costs must be negligible. It might be introducing a new price point, or softening up the market for withdrawing 330ml cans (which would be a cost saver - I expect).

As far as it being an easy mistake to make - surely that would only be for a semi-literate innumerate cretin?

Ingredients costs may (or may not) be negligible. But profits and labour costs are still being devalued and need to keep up with inflation.
