Someone I spoke with went through an airport with a larger container of liquid and they just said take a swig of it…possibly Athens. Seems like a crude but totally logical approach
 
Meanwhile in Australia you take an almost empty 110ml container through and they will confiscate it saying they "go by container size".

We paid billions for these fancy new machines and they can't even accurately detect if the amount of liquid is above or below the limit. Well, they probably can, but we choose to ignore it here.

But why would you take 110 aka over the 100 ml size when it is on the , currently , "not allowed " list ?
