The real answer is that bathroom scales have god awful precision and accuracy.

Most mid market scales buffer the weight to normalize it. I got a $20 one off Amazon that just tells me fresh every time and it’s great. I pooped .4lbs this morning.

Hmm, how would they buffer it, if you've got multiple household members? Or are we talking about those weird scales that require an app?

If last measurement within half a pound, show previous measurement.
