Half load was an example.......
Detergents are typically measured on soil level, load quantity and in some places like europe even on water hardness.
US detergents already miss the water hardness indication with a " use more if water is hard" granted that the average amount indicated is for medium water...sometimes they state so even for "heay soil"... so you already have to "guess" enough...
Some others just go by load quantity...
Now....to me it's simply silly to take away even a parameter such as a line or even better an actual dose based on ml to make simple mathematics with, now is even less easy to have a clue of what the right amount is for the soil you're going to apply said dose on,..which parameters are you going to get with this bottle than the 6lb?
As said the half load was an example, but loads can have infinite soil levels as well as being a little more than half, almost full, less than half etc...
Would have been better if the cap had lines anyway...even better ml like many detergents here do.
I say that in the era where peope are so crazy about blind enviroinmentalism almost like a fashion, and I add, just because someone tells that you gotta be so , more than the concentration which is anyway important, would be much more important to make sure you use the very exact amount, a thing that I really don't see happening with this detergent, even less with the pods even though very good in giving folks the illusion of it, claiming 1 shot is what you need is not right, because that 6 lb load could have infinite soil levels, and as we know...people out there don't usually tend to care much of these things themselves, not like someone here will do anyway...that 1 shot may well be over the average and standards needs, yet they're told this is what they need.
I know of members who actually broke the pouches and scale dosed them to make sure the correct amount was used, but this is "us" .. out there..I am sure 1 shot will be 1 shot always for the joy of manufacturers who very likely will also be able to give you the illusion of being even enviroinmentalist by doing so...is a win win for them...not for the folks who always more often rather needs to be taught, not teased.
