And dehydrating is not an option -- glider pilots (all pilots, for that matter) need to be sharpest at the end of a five hour flight, when they need to judge altitude, distance, wind correction, etc. precisely. That is not the moment to be groggy from dehydration. Being able to keep hydrating and relieving myself is a matter of life and death.
