I don't know about the recyclability of those plastics, but I wouldn't be surprised. They're basically two pieces of plastic screwed together without any seal, and it works well enough!
Standardized glass containers would be useful, although in some ways already exist (mason jars usually accept common lids, for instance).
What we need is a shift in mentality away from a plastic-first approach.
“I’ve got one word for you kid: glass.”
