every ounce counts it all adds up
Might sound corny but trim an ounce from 16 places and you got a pound. And so on and so forth.You sound like a politician or tv huckster using 2 different terms to make the difference sounds bigger than it is. You lost 1 ounce on that bracket, correct?
I’m not knocking your efforts, it just struck me as late night infomercial speak.

Landy was rumored to look underneath and toss any rock left unturned to gain an edge. His '65 car was allegedly the lightest of the A/FX bunch. I read somewhere in his own words, that he trimmed of the bosses on the tail light bezels and plastic lenses. While at that, removed the headlight buckets and installed aluminum discs in their place.I remember reading an article about Landy's Dodges and he mentioned removing every other fin/louver on the cowl panel as a small weight reduction. I remember the story went there was a kid looking for something to do in the shop and Dick said "make the car lighter"

No worries PhantomX.I 100% get it, ounces add up. Like my grandma used to say “mind your pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves”
I was just pointing out the word trickery or spin like you’d hear from a politician or infomercial huckster. “our absorbent picked up a full quarter pound of liquid while the competition soaked up a minuscule 3 ounces!”
