The flared base, which does hold liquid and is not just for looks, and the hollow handle make cleaning these a PITA. I just store pens in it now.

More importantly. How could you possibly clean that thing and know if it was clean or not. ?
They just put things back into the replicator without washing them. Otherwise you’d end up with as many cups as tribbles.
Would’ve been a neat canon quirk if all replicator-produced dinnerware were edible, but seldom taken advantage of on account of them being hard and bland… like those “which one is cake” videos where they eat shoes and the like.

Genius. I love the idea.
It’s mostly bloodworm sludge anyway.
You just limbo it.
