If your preferred method is to suck the reservoir absolutely dry before
refilling it, thus risking being without washer fluid at some point when you
really need it, then yes, I suppose you might consider it a bad design.

If, on the other hand, you do what a lot of people do and add fluid to the
reservoir periodically before it's completely dry, and then put the bottle
back in the garage for next time, then it really doesn't much matter how big
either the reservoir or the bottle is, does it?

For the second time I needed to refil washer fluid in
my 2004 accord coupe. I got the 1 gallon jug from the
store when the washer nozzles stopped delivering fluid.
Poured the bottle but before the bottle was empty
the container in the car was full and overflowing.
2-3 inches of the fluid left unused in the bottle.

Is this what you get? Or my pump is not sucking all
the fluid from the container?

Why would you design a car with a washer fluid
container just smaller than the widely available
container the fluid is sold in the stores?

Would you consider it as a bad design?
