Not quite! Some of our Soda Pop comes in 20 ounce bottles but are labelled
also in metric as 591 mL. Your pint is 568 mL, a difference of 23 mL. You
made a common mistake of assuming an ounce is an ounce just because they are
the same name.

Last time I was in the US I noted that draft beer was served in various
plastic 'glasses' in this place I went to. I noted that one of the sizes
was 20oz. Ironically I found myself drinking "UK pints" of beer!
