The expression "The Ink Bottle": A confused, unclear situation; An insoluble problem.
At the end of the XNUMXth century, the initial form was clear as the ink bottle. Those who had the pleasure (because it was a task assigned to the most deserving) of filling the inkwells placed on the desks of schoolchildren in the past know that an ink bottle, even empty, keeps a certain opacity, because of the deposit which is made on the walls.
It is quite simply the comparison of this opaque character with a situation lacking in clarity or incomprehension that caused the birth of this expression.
By extension, and as opposed to a clear problem that can be easily solved, the opacity of link bottle is compared to the total lack of clarity.
If we still find dive in some poetic forms, the word is hardly used any more except in this expression.
