Given that the actual liquid ink costs just about zero, it's cheaper just to
put in some extra ink than to device a more expensive mechanism that
measures the remaining ink instead of estimating it. The only "cost" is that
people see the extra ink, and ignorantly decide that it was put there for
the purpose of somehow ripping them off. The whole thing is silly.
