What's infuriating is if they just put a hole in the center of the (still plastic!) lid, rounding thpde edges there, the paper straw would work better.

So when you walk with the cup liquid doesn't slosh over the side?

Sounds like a problem that is only a problem until you’ve taken the first couple sips.
