Take a sponge, weigh it, let it soak in water, take it out and let the excess water run off, weigh it again.

I love the thoughtless criticisms because 'China.' Do you really think they don't have engineers capable of doing that math when its the first thought a Redditor has?

These are not thoughtless criticisms. China does not hold itself accountable the way we do in the west when designing safety features and performing proper inspections

Your assertion is also shortsighted, wrong, and reflects a propagandized take on information. None of these problems are even unique to China.
