Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What’s the reason for measuring everything by volume?

Yeah, a measurement cup is half a pint. They are defined volumes
A cup is 8 oz
US pint* which is 473 ml. Not to be confused with the UK pint, which is 568 ml.
