Thick glass will fracture when you pour boiling water in. The inside of the glass heats up and expands while the outside is still cool and that creates internal stresses and breaks it.
By making the glass/ceramic thin the whole thing expands with the heat which causes no significant stresses.
You could double-wall it or insulate it as others mentioned.
DRM doesn't have to be undefeatable. The point is simply that the number of people who have hacked machines which bypass the DRM is much smaller than the total installed base of machines.

Got tired of dd'ing my SD storage space back to stock and starting over when the unit ceased to boot after installing another stock apt.

This is basically the end game of the guild system Hollywood uses. You can keep people from undercutting you within the country by requiring guild membership and declaring union shops (or productions), but then the production just moves overseas. How many films are produced overseas nowadays to mitigate labor costs?

And that movie is from Caddyshack.
So now you look a bit stupid.
The sum of the Universe is zero.
