I think the issue is that it needs to be sealed so that they know what is in the bottle. Because of course, it is OK to bring 750ml of 151proof rum on board but not 750ml of lighter fluid. Not to mention that if I can figure out how to reseal a wine bottle, I'm sure any terrrorist can too. Kind of like not allowing nailer clippers with sharp files but allowing dental floss and coat hangers. Doesn't make any sense to me, but that is the way it has been explained to me.
