May a person standing in one domain drink from a vessel located in a different domain without extending their head and most of their body into that domain?
Synopsis
Drinking from a vessel in a different domain requires the person to insert their head and most of their body into the domain where the vessel is located. Unlike ordinary objects, drinking vessels are 'needed' by the person, creating rabbinic concern that they will bring the vessel back with them.
