Which doctors, specifically?

Clear is not necessary. Here's a reference for you: a professor of urology in the NHS who says "If it’s yellow it’s quite concentrated, if it’s white or just white or pale then it’s fine." So, pale is fine, yellow is not. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b036v9hq

Doctors I've spoken with. Do you want their names and phone numbers or something? What are you expecting me to say here?

Some reference material would be good. Article? Research?

These results seem to indicate one has to drink a lot - not just enough for clear pee

I don't know what their references are or what articles they've read.

But it's not hard to find warnings:

https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hyponatremia/...

> Drinking water is vital for your health, so make sure you drink enough fluids. But don't overdo it. Thirst and the color of your urine are usually the best indications of how much water you need. If you're not thirsty and your urine is pale yellow, you are likely getting enough water.

You see it all the time - young people drinking eight litres of water over an hour or something stupid like that during arduous physical activity because they think they should 'drink until their pee is clear', then wondering they their legs don't work anymore.

It's a meme from the HBO Trump interview.

Read the books, read the manuals.
