Wouldn’t it just be a superfluid at that point? Those things are ungovernable. We’d have way more problems that just spilled puddles. They crawl out of the beakers on their own. It’d be an absolute nightmare.

My bad superfluids are 0 viscosity not surface tension carry on we’re safe.

    I heard about superfluid crawling out of a container. But I wonder in this case, what works the fluid against the gravity upward the wall of the container?

    Capillary action; which is a combination of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension and for superfluids the additional ack of friction.

    Unfortunately, if cohesion is removed from water, this might drastically change if the water can crawl up the container (the details would be based on the specific physics of this imaginary universe).
