Weight in chardumps

Looking at the 4.0.x chardumps, the character weight is shown in stones + lbs...Why not solely in lbs? Just wondering.

Why not kgs?

Oh, haha. I was expecting you to post the cumulative weight of all of your characters. That would be hilarious!

If you printed out all of Hugo's oook ladder chardumps on 80gsm A4 papers, would Hugo's characters weigh more than Hugo himself?

(I did a quick and rough estimate and concluded that Hugo would probably weigh more, at least if you used a reasonably small font and printed on both sides; but the pile of chardumps would put up a good fight. If you used a slightly larger font - meaning fewer lines per page - and only printed on one side, the chardumps might well come out on top; if not yet, then in another couple years.)
