Weight discrepancy: 14,500 t vs 14,700 t
The article gives two different values for the weight of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The opening paragraph states "Its weight is estimated at 14,500 t," while the "Technical information" section lists the weight as 14,700 metric ton. The difference is 200 tonnes (~1.4%), which is not a rounding artefact of the same underlying figure. Neither value is attributed to a specific source in a way that would explain the discrepancy. Could an editor check the original engineering literature and align these two figures?
