In effect does this force the USA to change its rules in regards to labelling, or lose trade if they don't?

If this is the case then its quite radical as instead of just interfering in the daily lives of Britons without a mandate it will also be effectively interfering in the daily lives of Americans without a mandate. Unless two production runs are installed in all US factories that make exports as well as domestics products.

 Last week, officials from the NIST Laws and Metric Group met with EU
officials in Brussels to discuss their Metric Directive and learned that
they intend to proceed with the implementation of the metric only
directive in 2010 unless the EU industry requests a delay.  They also
told us they want to see the U.S. adopt the FPLA amendment to
demonstrate that we are making progress.  More details will follow when
the official report of the meeting is released.
