minus-squareLumidaub@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 months agoYes. And 32 ounces != 28 ounces. They’re absurdly using “a litre” and “a 32 ounce bottle” kind of like “a serving”.

minus-squareanyhow2503@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoYes, the issue is the wording. The american version shrinks a bottle of certain volume, the metric version shrinks the unit of measurement.

The metric version makes no sense
Less than the Freedom units one?
Yes.
How so?
1 liter != 0.9 liter
Yes. And 32 ounces != 28 ounces.

Ohh wait I get it. “A liter [bottle] shrank to…”
Yes, the issue is the wording. The american version shrinks a bottle of certain volume, the metric version shrinks the unit of measurement.
