Glass is a brittle material that can easily break or chip when used to scoop ice. This can not only create sharp edges that can potentially harm the user, but also result in small glass fragments mixing with the ice. While all the other options provide valid reasons for why glass may not be the best choice for scooping ice, they do not address the safety concern of glass breaking and potentially contaminating the ice. Additionally, glass is typically heavier and more fragile than plastic, making it less practical for use in scooping ice.
