Neither of those items weighs more. We know that, because you have told us the weight
of each item, and we have completed a comparative calculation. One of them weighs
one pound and the other weighs one pound. One pound is equal to one pound. So the
weight of one is equal to the weight of the other, and neither of them weighs more than
the other. Reasoning symmetrically, we are also mathematically entitled to state that
neither of them weighs less than the other one either, as well, also, too.
