The one that lists sheets is at least using a verifiable metric. It's better than the "right rolls of unspecified size are more than 39 different rolls of unspecified size".

Still silly because no one knows how many sheets they use before changing the roll, but at least it's reasonable silly.

    Isn't it the same problem tho, since they can make the sheets smaller and say there's more without actually offering a longer roll?

    We need legally defined toilet paper roll standards.

    The label usually says total surface area in the package. The stores near me break the price down to cost per unit of area, as well. This really untangles the 'how much should I pay for a quadrahedroll vs a dodecca butt sphere" worth of paper?
