Yeah sorry, based on assumption. Because the US (plus a few tiny islands) refuses to switch to metric even though imperial is obsolete and complicated. It’s also usual practice in the US to use weird things for measurements. Cars, dishwashers, etc.
So in this case it was a wrong assumption on my part.
Neat, thanks for letting us all know!
Why do people online caste Americans as the culprit when this is clearly from a British source?

I’m deeply sorry.
