I wish there was legislation in place that sets legal standard sizes; for one, it would allow for more uniform packaging, allowing reuse between brands and reducing trash. It would be more predictable box / pallet sizes, reducing transport costs. And it would give consumers more security, even with the mandatory price per liter / kilo notices which are often hard to read.
One example of shrinkflation / cost fuckery here is cheese. We buy a kilo of it every time, but they've changed it so you get e.g. 920 grams. Looks the same size, but it's slightly different, thus hard to make comparisons. Still up 30% since before the Ukraine thing though.
