The US has their own version of all the imperial units. Also who uses pints except the Brits?

India, I think. But that's the Brits' fault too obviously.

We don't use pint here. We have some traditional measures that have different absolute values depending on location. We are almost totally metric here.

I could've sworn I once had a pint but it was in a hotel lobby in Bangalore so not quite representative. I stand corrected, thanks.
