You're arguing with a meme that put clogged gutter as pure tea ingredient

Correct. That would be tea as long as it's camellia sinensis.

i mean, if you consider tea to be leaves soaked in water until the flavor comes out, then clogged up gutter water is tea.

What's the proper steeping time for decaying oak leaves "until the flavor comes out"?

I'd say you should steep them for up to a year, that way you get all the taste.

Excellent, I'll be ready to sell my current batch this coming October.

In some countries where tee grows naturally you can found riviers and pond where the water carried tea leaves fell from the tree, which give naturally to the water some aroma.

The meme is terrible and shows the creator has taste buds that probably can't distinguish between gutter water and tea (especially after it's been BOILED a few hours).
