I used to run large batch bulks where the load cells were only 0.5kgs and we had "aquired" a product that was in good old English standard measurements and when they converted it, they didn't even attempt to round/floor/ceiling/common sense.

I put in purchase orders for enough equipment to get it done the way they wanted. We adjusted the batch scale accordingly.
