    For the airflow, you can block it with your finger to control the flow

    Optimisation. Otherwise, they’d have to make separate bottles for right handed and left handed people. That way, a single bottle fits all

    That’s because one is for right handed and the other one is for left handed.

    The extra hole is for pouring your unused sauce back in the bottle.

    One for soy sauce to come out, another for air to enter the bottle. It helps keeps the “flow” smooth.

      Yeah it’s the same reason your mom had to punch a second hole at the top of the Juicy Juice can before she could pour it into your sippy cup.

      This sounds like the most logical answer.

        It also allows one to place a finger over the air hole, so that you can add single drops at a time

      That makes no sense. I just tried to pour out air and it’s soy sauce out of both holes.

          Yes, that’s where the soy sauce is, usually.

            Wow, that’s a relief! I was really worried that it might be a medical condition, and I wasn’t sure who you should even go see about something like that.
