I don't see how using a wider category is helpful for giving people an idea about how much caffeine a bar of chocolate happens to have.

And I don't see why you should make distinctions which don't make a difference, and engage in false precision.

A cup of black tea is an amount that the average person wouldn't drink right before bed.

And they would drink a cup of white tea, green tea, or oolong tea right before bed?

If you have a better metric for given people a meaningful idea about the amount of caffeine in chocolate feel free to suggest one.

I already did: 'a cup of tea'.
