That's the kind of simple rice cooker I had growing up, too, and my parents used similar methods of estimation. It turned out fine and was much, much easier to use.

I remember the first time we got a Zojirushi hot water dispenser, and even then it was like "Wait, you have to push these tiny buttons in what order again?" Whereas the previous cheap one we had a giant, easy to use button front and center.

Maybe it really is a cultural difference...?

To be clear, we don't have a simple rice cooker. We have one of these terrible UX rice cookers with a shit ton of buttons and settings.

But we ignore all that and just do the thumb-level of water and hit the button that says cook (and also says like three other things too, but whatever). We ignore the other buttons.
