    if companies actually did share 5 numbers with each piece of clothing (notice that that actually wouldn’t work since each piece of clothing is a bit different since they’re still largely hand-sown and measuring each piece of clothing is unpayably expensive) it would lead to a bureaucracy hell. businesses in europe already complain about too much bureaucracy, because they have to document a lot of things, and this would make the outcry a lot worse.

    on top of that most customers wouldn’t actually bother reading a datasheet of 5 numbers and instead just try them on. so it’s not even a big advantage.
