  >bad news, carbonated water is acidic. Is this a relevant factor? Presumably plastic was chosen because it's resistant to acid.

    That's parent's point: if aluminium were resistant to (weak) acids, or carbonated drinks weren't acidic, there would be no need for a plastic liner inside aluminium can (and thus no BPA-present-or-not issue).

  Depending on the route and storage methods, aluminum cans can reach very hot temperatures while in transport.
