One just discovered volume vs weight units.
That’s why when I read “cups” I simply assume the recipe doesn’t require precision.
Another confusion easily solved by using proper units and measuring mass instead of volume, as commonly done in cooking instructions outside the US.
For what it’s worth, even here in the EU my bag of quinoa has the same instructions in volume.
