Hi,
I am quite confused with the math used here and in the creation of the starter. Each time this statement is made, it just confuses me. 1 US cup is 8oz. This statement is quite confusing. It states 1 scant cup, 4oz, but 4oz is 1/2 cup. Can someone clarify when you say 1 cup you mean 1/2 cup while you are mentioning 4oz? It's the same in creation of the starter. Same numbers are mentioned which don't make sense.

"Add about 1/2 cup (4 ounces, 113g) room-temperature water (hereafter known simply as "water") and a scant 1 cup (4 ounce, 113g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour (hereafter known simply as "flour") to the 1/2 cup of starter."
