It's also "probably good enough" to use your tap water.
The one place we know it isn't safe - Flint - says that you should not use tap water for cooking as the lead will get in the food.
Nor does it make sense to diversify sources. You pay a lot more for non-tap water, bottled water doesn't have a track record of being better than tap water, and it's harder to track any recall issues or other warnings if you have multiple sources.

Plus, there are other ethical questions. Did you want to support the military government of Fiji? Or Nestlé's success in limiting the rights of Michigan citizens to bring legal action to "protect the state's natural resources from pollution, impairment or destruction"? Because those are some of the side-effects of choosing bottled water.
In addition, of course, to all the packaging waste and transport costs.
