The US system is technically called "US Customary Units" and while it and the Imperial system do share many units of measurement, there are significant differences here and there, especially when it comes to volume, which just compound as you use larger and larger measurements. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_customary_units Like 1 US fl oz 1 UK fl oz just to start, and moving up from there something like a Pint or Gallon doesn't even contain the same number of its system's respective fl ozs (ex. 1 US Gallon is 128 US fl oz, 1 UK Gallon is 160 UK fl oz). --- https://imgur.com/bbRWLI8 https://imgur.com/A0BErSV https://imgur.com/S1m3po4 https://imgur.com/7fCcfko <cite>Bio1590 posted [p:955132218] in So 1 fl oz...
