Yes, and 1 pound is everywhere 1 pound, even on the Moon. The US don’t have even a different unit for weight and mass. because when the imperial system was invented they thought that it was the same.
Uh… But a pound IS a pound on the moon, it’s a unit of force/weight not mass (I wish we [the US] used metric, just being annoyingly pedantic for fun)
Edit:
Aaaand apparently my brain didn’t read your whole comment, you already addressed the weight/mass thing. Long day, laying in bed w headache, can’t read
You say it, a Pound is a Pound weight on earth, but weight depends on gravity, so a Pound is only 1/6 Pound on the Moon Imperial system is obsolet crap, maybe enough for a farmer, but in tecnology, science, where you need to work with measures of μ, feet and inches are as usefull like roman numbers for integrals.
Ok, if it is allowed to remove your shoe to measure a furniture you want to buy, i.e. only if your foot actually measures exactly one foot
My guy, every foot measures exactly one foot.
