I've always taken the phrase, "...The extra Metal Rod gives it a good shell
while the bottle and metal twine hold and amplify the vision..." as meaning
the collapsable pole is to flimsy to support the weight of the bottle,

On a more positive note, I got feedback from GZ that he passed my tinkering
petition on to the trade skills people. There where over 450 signatures on
it, maybe that will help some things.
