there are actually a lot of bottles in germany, both glass and plastic, that somehow skirt around the pfand legislation. plastic oil and juice bottles, any cleaning agent containers, all glass wine bottles and jars etc... all aluminium beverage cans have pfand, but the steel food cans don't. there seems to be a trend that products less likely to be consumed outside of people's homes are less likely to have pfand - beers, water and lemonades usually do, whereas wine and juice don't. beverage cartons never do.
I'd say what's most unreasonable are the different pfand amounts for different container categories, because they don't reflect the comparative effort in collecting them from the streets like some homeless people or poor elderly people do a lot - the cans pay by far the most, plastic bottles are in the middle, and the lowest pfand per piece is paid for the heavy glass bottles.
