If you can add sand to drinking water, then I'm not going to the right parties.
I think we've got the "seethroughability" range pinned down to transparent and opaque, but I'm not sure that transparent=clear.
What color is "water-white" supposed to be? I've seen "clear" water, white cloudy water, red water, and so on.
As long as we're off-topic, how many people prefer a certain amount of "hardness" in their drinking water? I was raised in a house that used well water. We needed a water softener for the washing machine and so on, but the stuff coming out of the taps was all natural. The Mississippi River was literally across the street. I was raised on "rust water" and like it, within reason. To this day I find that nothing can quench my thirst like ice-cold, rock-hard water.
