It seems to me that unit pricing of batteries per battery and per 100 is
simply a matter of moving the decimal point 2 places. Nothing simpler.
As for per quart and per pint, I'm sure most people have no clue how
many pints in a quart or quarts in a pint. My wife being one of them!
I think the brains at Consumer reports missed this bit of simplicity!

What do you think of this article in Consumer Reports which displays two
containers of salad dressing;
one stating the Unite Price in *price per pint* and the other stating the Unit
Price in *price per quart*?
