Reusable plastic bottles or metal are great, it's the single use plastics that are really terrible.
The banning of plastic bag sees the rise of reusable bag...being taken as single use. Multiple times higher footprint, multiple times higher cost. People will do everything for their own convenient.
Except that a recent study shows that a plastic bag charge in the UK significantly changed behaviors:

So the suggestion that people are unchangeable is plausible, but turns out to not be true.
