It seems like the argument is for "what is the minimum amount of water needed", but I wonder if it's still better to consciously drink more water? Could it be good for helping the body detoxify itself? I've heard drinking more water is a "beauty tip". Also drinking more water could satisfy the signals that you may interpret as hunger instead of thirst, which could promote weight loss, or maintaining a healthy weight. As the article points out there's a toxicity level of too much water, but I'd like to know what the optimal amount to drink is. Maybe that's where the 8x8 rule comes from?
