It should be illegal to sell such unconcentrated solutions, except perhaps in food (e.g., even milk is easily reconstituted). It would be much more efficient to sell the concentrated chemical and let consumers dilute them. Imagine the fuel savings, shelf space savings of not having to ship 99.9% water around the world.
I remember some medicines were dispensed like that in the 80s, and the patient had to reconstitute them before using.

These quats are sold concentrated as dish sanitizer (mixed in a sink full of water) for restaurants, for example. I think consumers would just rather have ready-to-use spray bottles in most cases. There's probably a surprising number of people that couldn't do the basic math of diluting based on a formula.
