No one uses feet outside of the US! Who cares how much an outdated volume of water weighs in an outdated measure of weight?

And for the information of the other 95% of the world - A cubic metre of pure water at the temperature of maximum density (3.98 °C) and standard atmospheric pressure (101.325 kPa) has a mass of 1000 kg, or one tonne.
