I guess you're quoting it because it is EXACTLY four million kilograms?
- NitpickLawyer 9mo agoProbably for our freedom unit loving friends, they have a different ton (because why not).

It's unlikely that a newspaper called "the berliner" in a article about Berlin included this line specifically thinking about citizens of a far-away foreign country who don't use metric units that often. Occam's razor says that it's actually one of our noble and enlightened European journalists who made that sloppy remark without realising it.
