"4,000 tons is almost four million kilograms"

[mathieuh]

Maybe targeted at Americans and using US customary short tons (which is 907 kg)

[mindslight]

As an American, I'm going to need this as a volume, either in terms of Olympic-sized swimming pools or the height of a pile in an [American] football stadium. Maybe I'd accept weight as a quantity of Ford F-150s, but you'd be pushing it.

4,000 tonnes is almost exactly 4 tonne. Could be 4,0004 tonne.

[ihaveajob]

I guess you're quoting it because it is EXACTLY four million kilograms?

[NitpickLawyer]

Probably for our freedom unit loving friends, they have a different ton (because why not).

[__MatrixMan__]

They only reported one significant figure, could be as little as 3500. kg or as much as 4499.99999... kg

[nayuki]

"4k tons" is 4 gigagrams (Gg).

LLMs couldn't've written that!
