Those defending the abuse REALLY need to get a life of their own, Elmo.
Mavic, we're probably talking about two different levels of abuse. What Starbucks wants to avoid is having people get a tiny shot of espresso in a HUGE empty cup, then fill the rest of the 20 ounces with milk or half-and-half.
I'm not talking about an imaginary line of "okay" versus "not okay". If you want a shot of espresso, get it in a shot-sized cup.
You'd only NEED a shot of espresso in a 20-ounce cup if you intend to...um..."milk" the system.
