There’s a couple of reasons straws might be convenient or even necessary:

• You have a disability that causes movement problems like shaking
• Limited neck/shoulder/arm mobility or a swollen lip (The latter makes it hard to get a proper seal)

• You can build containers that don’t spill when they fall over
