@J322Y if your water is out of a well, you can absolutely "waste" it. The aquifers take quite a long time to recharge. It is one thing if you are using city water, but if you are on well water, it is definitely a long term resource. As cave divers we are painfully aware of the aquifer health in Florida, and needless to say it is not "healthy".
That said, there is a difference in using water for consumption of various things, and wasting water for no reason. There is no reason to run that many gallons of water through a BC because it isn't doing anything productive, and that is the definition of "wasting" a resource
