Grats! Mines tolerant but in denial. God I hope she's the one who's right. Just in case, tho....

I guess I'm fortunate to have my wife on board with me
Most people ( especially in urban areas ) do not have access to fresh water if infrastructure goes down. I'm fortunate enough to have a few fresh water springs on property and near by. I just read an article that may be helpful to others.
Most of us drink milk and then throw away the jugs. This article simply states, instead of throwing the jugs away, to wash them thoroughly and store them in trash bags (preferably double bagged) under your house until needed. Then they are readily available and clean for use. It also stated that they shouldn't be stored in the attic as heat and temperature fluctuations may possibly release toxins in the plastic.
Non-scented bleach is best to clean & treat the water but it still won't get out all of the milk that has leached into the plastic.
What's left to leach out over time might not cause a problem if the water is treated properly.
Don't take my word for it... it may be fine but if you "google" it you'll see what I'm talking about.
The old milk jugs don't hold up as well as the PET bottles.
Just offering some food for thought.
Got 1 built and put away...Good idea...hands down..LOL.. I have the double 5 gallon ceramic gravity feed set up.
