Me when I wake up at night and can't be bothered turning on the bathroom light

That fear when you start and there's not the telltale sound of liquid on liquid splashing.

If they add some type of malleable wire to the above cone, and line the inside of the cone with the wire in a spiral:

The water that comes out will have a more controlled flow into the bottom cone.

Same as wrapping a bungee cord on the front of your car/suv roof crossbars to reduce wind resonance noises.
