    But (taken literally by my autistic ass) it’s one we already know the answer to because we’re the ones who defined all the units in the first place. A gram is a unit of mass, not weight, which is why its value is the same regardless of the value of g. That’s also why it’s always measured with a balance rather than a scale. It’s based on the Planck constant – which is, well, constant.
