I actually love this, because as a disabled person one of the many problems with plastic straw bans are that they are actually vitally necessary for many disabled people to be able to, you know, drink liquid and not aspirate. But I don't think the same problem exists for cups -- I could be wrong, but I know many people who have used plastic straws to drink coffee out of paper cups due to disability, and I think that in general disabled folks w/accessibility barriers to using paper cups tend to bring their own cups with them, given that many drinks are sold in paper cups.
