You might find a neoprene fuel bottle boot to quiet things down. They are sold by 40below.

neoprene, thats what I meant when I thought of those beer bottle/can covers you see people with at the beach or whatever, cheap I presume and easy to modify/cut/attach to each other etc to fit a specific fuel bottle.
Would be perfect for vibration dampening (if the thickness is not too much, if not enough, double up or whatever)

Thanks for all the responses, folks! I greatly appreciate it. In the end, I have decided to leave the Svea at home and bring my Trangia alcohol stove and Emberlit woodstove (the latter, when not used as a stove with twigs, can serve as a "base" for the Trangia). That combination will be lighter and take up less space. I'll put alcohol in a sparkly green water bottle that will look completely different from my other bottles, lest I ingest it, and will carry in on the underside of the down tube, further reducing the risk that it become confused with the H2O bottles.

well have fun no matter how you heat up your water ;-)

and yes, I know, I know, don't eat any rocks while you're at it ;-)

(like I said, dad instincts still strong and I work with the elderly, so I overthink dangers sometimes with this sort of stuff)

It's a good caution. One could even use a snip from a Ziploc or something to close the water bottle cap over. That way when the bottle is being carried on the bike or sitting around camp, no one could absentmindedly tip it up and squeeze the contents down their throat.

Use a marker to label it as stove fuel. Do not write alcohol on it, some bum could see that and steal it.

If I get nervous that a bottle in the under-downtube cage could pop out of the cage, I also wrap a velcro strap around the top of the bottle to the downtube to make sure it stays firmly in place.

Since ​​​​​​fuel bottle will be close to the Lawyers Lips on the fork, I thought a Counselor's Cover made from Tyvek (just cut from, really, as there was no fabrication involved). Just place the Tyvek square over the bottle and screw on the top. I'll travel with it that way, and unless I am filling the stove, it will sit around in camp that way. Ain't nobody drinking from this bottle.

Magistrate's membrane you say?

We use our canister stove well below freezing without any trouble. I prefer my Whisperlight, but for short trips the canisters work fine. When I have more than one pot, I'll use the lid of the extra pot to set the stove on.

Indeed.
