It's good to know, but it's not going to give equal results between countries if it uses things that get daily usage in one country and are purely extra curricular in others.
But it's kind of moot, since I don't actually know they had that shortcoming, just that it's a possibility.
Yeah, but it helps to sanity check obviously bad answers if you have some real world experience with it. Like if you worked out someone filled up their car with 183 gallons of gas, you might double check and notice the decimal place error and realize the right answer is 18.3 gallons instead.
Bear in mind these results are determined just as much by the bottom of the barrel test takers as they are the best and brightest, so things that help catch dumb errors like that will bring up the average.

As long as relevant conversion ratios are provided for any units, it doesn't matter whether they use gallons, liters, or fizbangs.
