A fridge from 70 years ago has better features than the fridge I own now

* why would you move those to a bucket of ice cubes losing 1/3rd the freezer space and congealing the cubes together? *

I use a portion of my freezer space for ice cubes. I make a batch of ice in the ice machine, and then freeze it until it gets low and/or used. My fridge doesn't have an ice machine and this uses less freezer space than ice cube trays.

I use the ice to make delicious alcoholic drinks, and would happily make more ice than I ever though I'd need just to avoid having to make it when inconvenient.

Sure but

1. that's your choice and you have the flexibility to do that

2. you don't have 4 ice cube trays as a fixed feature of the freezer plus a separate ice bucket, half the space of which is a quick release system for the cubes from the trays
