    I mean, it doesn’t weigh 100 kg. That’s a measurement of mass, not weight. We often discuss our weight using kilograms with the assumption that we’re talking about it at sea level, but the weight would be different at different altitudes. It may be pretty negligible though, I suppose.

      True, but in general language, weight does often refer to mass.
