Uh, you know metric has volume measurements as well, and Imperial has weight measurements? Measuring cup vs scales is not really a difference in metric and imperial.
A litre of water weighs a kilogram. When asked for 300ml of water, I can add 300g instead.
Only at sea level. Cooking with metric in the Himalayan mountains would not allow for this conversion.
+1 point to imperial /s
That's a good point, that does come in handy.
Okay now do oil.
It's not often you get a recipe telling you to add 300ml of oil. But it sounds like a recipe I want to try.
Directions and nutrition information and other stuff like that tend to use mass for metric and volume for imperial. Yeah, you can convert stuff, but it's annoying.
