Richard, It's my honor to reply the linuxptp grand master's email. I think the analogy should like this. Could you please kindly advise? Thanks.

I received a UPS package(UDP) and on the shipping tag, the shipping weight is 4.5Kg. When I opened the package, the packaging list sheet from the food company(PTP) indicate that the content is 4Kg of pork. It's better to eat the 4Kg of pork instead of eat all 4.5Kg include air bubble pack and ice then complain it's hard to bite.

In the spirit of the new year, imagine you order 4 kilograms of pork. When the delivery arrives, you find that the butcher gave you 3.5 kg of pork and 0.5 of packaging.
