A straw has 1 hole

Title. If you disagree, you are wrong.

A "hole" must be a traversible path through an object. Therefore, people who say "hole in the ground" are using the word hole incorrectly unless it is a hole that goes through the Earth.

No, I've known this for a while. Unfortunately, as I live in the US, our education isn't that great, so people still think a straw has 2 holes.

If you say only the title is correct you are inconsistent. And yes, I'm an American, and happy to be one.

Of course you should be happy. Though hole can also mean "indentation in a surface" if I am not wrong

I think it isn't right for a word describing physical properties to be ambiguous in nature. An indentation in a surface would be a dent or a pit.

Or otherwise, we call them blind holes (though saying blind hole feels cumbersome, so we just call them holes)

I'd argue that the original expression for the word hole will have been the hole in the ground. This means that that is a hole and you are coping

That's not a hole, that's a pit.

indeed, it should be a pit in one if we want to be consistent.
