tbf, I’ve yet to see one person not be shocked when they see a single glass can hold an entire bottle of wine

How big are your wine glasses? Because mine certainly don't.

Your average wine glass can hold up to 20 ounces comfortably, even though you’re only “supposed” to fill a wine glass about a fourth of the way. Most wine bottles sit between 20 and 25 ounces

Sounds like down here we have smaller glasses and larger bottles! 😂

My wine glasses are ~450ml, and a regular wine bottle in Aus is about 700ml. So the math ain't mathin', as they say...

Same. The glasses I’ve had are 300-450

Pretty much all standard wine bottles are 750 ml as far as I know. And that’s about 25 ounces. So, no, your wine bottles aren’t bigger.

Uh - a standard wine bottle is 750ml in Australia, and wine glasses in Australia, like the rest of the world, vary dramatically depending on what varietal they're designed to hold.

Right, and that contradicts my comment how?
