Why no aluminum
I'm a little concerned about the potential for aluminum toxicity.
In what way is aluminum toxic?
Edit- I looked it up. If you have kidney disease it can accumulate and cause other problems, but the amount entering the body from aluminum cooking items is incredibly low. I'd imagine even lower from a drinking cup.

Enh maybe it's fine. Even so, steel is real.
Aluminum is not strong enough for me. I need to buy the most indestructible products because I will unintentionally break them. I have broken a nalgene already
In that case if all else fails, there is titanium.
Which stainless steel still beats in terms of strength. The main advantage of titanium is it's really light
I don't think it's as simple as that. Depending on your needs:

I could be wrong, but it sounds like a titanium canteen would accrue damage and dents more easily, but be more likely to survive larger falls. But I'd probably still choose steel just because steel is plenty fine and cheaper.
