My point was that those whose tap water is too pure to make good tea
don't have to bring home a lot of spring water with a slight mineral
content. Instead, a small addition of "mineral water" may work just as
well - even if added to brewed tea (rather than the kettle). The
preamble was to suggest a mechanism: flavor potentiation, rather than an
effect on the chemistry of extraction.
