We can think of two reasons that "lbs" is easier to use than "pnds":

1). "lbs" has only three letters in it, whereas "pnds" has four.

You save a lot of time and ink by using the shorter one.

2). When you use "pnds", people always come back and ask you what that means.

This rigamarole also eats up a lot of your valuable time. It's easier when you use

an abbreviation that others understand, and you don't have to keep explaining it.

What not use miles instead of km?

There is no inherent preference in the use of "English" measurements - miles and pounds - to "SI" ("Systeme Internationale") measurements - meters and grams - other than that the use of SI measurements made the calculations easier, back in the days before computers. Now with computers, there is nothing to argue for either way.
