Maybe he means another metric, e.g. by volume? But:
- first problem, he seems to expect that people with whom he talks should not make assumptions
- second problem, does he really expect the store clerk to calculate the volumes of all the boxes?

In the second case, since he is not forced to work in a team, his superior skills are shown in the result.
