I know it should be obvious and maybe I missed the sarcasm, but the teaspoon unit is in no way the same as an actual teaspoon utensil. I also don't use my own feet to measure length.

I didn't think that was sarcasm, it's just such a jacked up system of measurement that he's not confident it doesn't change with borders, which is honestly a pretty reasonable point of uncertainty.
