It's probably got to do with Americans measuring everything by volume, they have to melt it to measure it.
Our butter stick wrappers have volume measurements on them. I've never melted butter to measure it.
So then why don't you measure butter in centimetres? Oh, inches, I'm sorry.
Our butter is usually marked out in tablespoons. It's also just known that a stick of butter is half a cup.
