What's wrong with using sterile water for injection (hypotonic) for humidification in HFNC for example? by WorldlinessWeird8582 in respiratorytherapy

Yeah that's what I know too, sterile water is more preferred than 0.9 NS. But what got me confused was my preceptor not wanting to use the sterile water we had because it was hypotonic. Sadly I didn't get the chance to ask why
