Good point about the indented saucer seat to hold the cup. In fact the
bottom of the cup with leading circular rim and contoured sides is
formed to mate with the saucer. I prefer the one hand technique where
the lid is used as a strainer versus the two hands where the lid
brushes back the leaves for sipping.
