[...rationality discussion...]
I must be missing something. I thought the point of this riddle was the difference between avoirdupois and Troy weight -- a simple matter of (rather esoteric) factual knowledge not contained in the structure of the question.
The "duh" version is usually stated as "Which weighs more: a ton of bricks, or a ton of feathers?" Or, at least, that's the way I usually heard it.
