Yep, standards are always a good thing when it comes to sizes!

Regarding the TOF versus highball, doesn't the old fashioned design offer some benefit for "rocks" drinks that a Collins or highball would not, thereby necessitating the existence of a TOF glass IF it called for that much volume AND rocks? Or would the volume of said drink by its very nature render the rocks ineffectual?

Again, just thinking out loud. Is there a drink on the rocks of that volume? Doesn't sound like it here, at least from a tiki bar perspective. Or is this more of a marketing ploy for disgruntled workers who drop by the bar after work and say, "Tough day at the office...better make it a triple, Sam."

I can see it now...The Triple Old Fashioned...for those (luckily) rare occasions when a double won't quite cure your ills.
