    Water can’t absorb neither moisture nor water so it can’t be holding as much of either as can be absorbed.

      I would count a grouping of water as having absorbed itself personally. But either way, it technically can’t absorb any more water, so it is always at the absorption max, whether that’s 0% or 100% water.

        I’m prepared to admit water is wet if you’re prepared to admit every non-absorbent material is perpetually wet since it can’t absorb any more water.

          Ok fair point on the 0%. I guess it does depend on whether you consider water to have absorbed itself or not for soaked.
