Realistically is there much point in documenting the masses of bits of paper - I can see it being a nice-ish thing for bulky bits of hardware (e.g. consoles) but this seems a bit excessive to me. How accurate are the average set of consumer scales? Do we end up marking a brand new version because the registration card is 2g heavier than another version, etc.
