> Wonder if a dependence on removable media had anything to do with it. Not at all. It's better to ignore that bit out of the article. You actually have loads of parties giving a weight of a container. E.g. when the booking is made, then when they give the shipping instructions, then later maybe from a trucker when it's delivered to the terminal, lastly possibly given by the terminal itself (though most don't have it). What might have occurred that instead of having a sane design whereby you just update a weight of a container it works by having multiple different fields for these things. This as not always you can trust some input. E.g. weight given by a trucker in Germany might be ok, but it might be utter xxx in another country. I find it interesting that it was just an advice though. I'd prefer if they would have more ability to force changes and also across companies.
