CMV: In an air-conditioned restaurant, drinks without ice are vastly superior to drinks with ice

Argument one - ice occupies valuable space that could be filled with more drink, thus making refills be required more often, and therefore there is more time that you are without a drink. 

Argument two - ice melts and waters down drinks. Sweet tea? A disgusting barely-sweet teawater hybrid. Soda? Flat and watery tasting. 

While I will agree that outside on a hot summers day, a cold iced tea is nice, in an already-cold restaurant, ice serves almost no purpose as most drinks that are served cold will stay cold.

This is incorrect, unless the air in the restaurant is as cold as your drink.

A cold drink without ice will begin to warm up immediately, whereas a drink with ice will stay the same temperature for as long as there's ice in it.
