Sure but dictating what units to use is a bit overboard. A pound should be a pound and a kilo a kilo but what units I use in commerce is my business, not the state’s.


While a kilogram is kilogram, a pound has an accepted definition and plenty of unexpected ones.

Is it a troy pound, a tower pound, a london pound, a metric pound?
