Right? Cooking is the single area where the American system makes sense. Much more intuitive and you don't need a kitchen scale.
Using volume is imprecise no matter what units you're using. Not a big deal for cooking, but for baking, you definitely should use a scale.
Cooking is an art. Baking is a science
