'Also, humans ofte dislike trace flavors, even when they like the flavor : it subconsciously tastes "dirty".' Interesting. This makes a lot of sense to me. I sometimes dilute fruit-flavoured soft drinks to reduce the calorie load, but there's definitely a point when they're mostly water where they suddenly become slightly unpleasant. Like, say up to 90% dilute is fine-to-nothingy, and 100% water is of course fine, but 95% dilute is worse than either. (See also reusing a soft drink bottle for water without rinsing it first.)
