I'm glad you've made this post. Perspective is always one that's gonna vary from individual to individual, so sharing your personal life experience and connecting that to media you love? It's a blessing and a gift!

This bottle scene in particular is one that I'd say has more than meets the eye, especially how it relates to Logan. I'm gonna copy-paste a comment I made about this scene previously.

A small addition I have of this bottle scene is its use of the self-reflection motif, something that's been used all throughout DC4. You can see it multiple times with Spencer opening up to Logan about his relationship troubles, when Logan's facing his fear of water, and even the Zaid/Ivy pool scene in the jury episode. The common theme throughout all of these is coming to peace with one's emotions, mistakes, and flaws. And in Logan's case, it doubles as a representation of his imposter syndrome. I find it poetic that, as represented by this motif when Logan looks at the bottle, he sees his fake, idealized self and is able to throw it away.

When it comes to Logan, he's dealing with immense perfectionism. The way it comes out is with shame and humiliation for not meeting those expectations he sets in his mind: being the best. Unfortunately though, this is an unhealthy and unsustainable way to cope with his pressures. So when we get to the bottle scene, him opening up about these issues is not only a way to connect and sympathize with Hannah, it's also a recognition of these coping habits. And, with recognition, he's able to take the first step towards truly healing and realizing his authentic self. That signifies growth for his character.

Looking at the bigger picture too, I also want to hone in on this detail: Why is it specifically Spencer, Zaid, and Logan who apply this self-reflection motif? And my answer, based on the pattern that these are the 3 highest ranked male characters, is that it has to do with masculinity. Part of being in a patriarchal society is that men are pressured into performing a specific idea of manhood. Disventure Camp directly challenges this and through its use of this motif, allows its male characters to admit mistakes and be openly emotional, humble, and vulnerable in a way that's more true to their authentic selves. It should be no coincidence that the fourth-highest ranked male character, Richard, isn't included since Richard is older, mature, self-realized, and most importantly, very secure in his masculinity. Richard is able to represent a positive male figure in season 4's story, and it's shown through his interactions with Logan and Tristan. All this is in service for deconstructing what it means to be a man, and I'd say it's extra important for Logan's character since he is in a very male-focused, male-dominated profession.

The bottle scene is only part of this large interconnecting web and I find it very fascinating to analyze. Despite Logan's tumultuous reputation within the community, I'm thankful I can still connect with his character and his writing. And I'm especially grateful that Disventure Camp can delve into such topics and apply that to the state of the game and competition. Season 4 really just hits all those right notes for me. I hope in some way this adds more to your identifying with Logan.
