It never occurred to me that people needed this spelled out, but I guess it's simpler in most of the world where 1L = 1kg.

The other kind of people who know about the weight of waters are people with campers / trailers and people with fish tanks in their apartments. The maximum allowable size for a fish tank in the middle of the room is not that much.

It's easy in gallons and pounds, too, if the correct gallon is used: 10 pounds per imperial gallon of water, by definition.
These are all things which are generally known to Americans. But HN has an international audience, for whom "gallon" is presumably somewhat vague.
