Probably OT, but my attention was drawn by a posting on water meters,
and it made me wonder again
why water meters are not a standard part of the water supply?

I think they should be.

Are water meters inordinately expensive?

I don't think so. Ours is very small and neat, it was fitted within twenty
minutes from answering the door to leaving.

Or do they have some disadvantage?

Only the tired old ones people will come out with.
