Hash? HASH?

My wife actually found this one first, on an iDevice.  Nice to see that Apple is working hard to propagate the same bugs to all of their platforms.

Have you see that the Calculator app can do conversions for you now?  Great for converting US recipes to "the rest of the world".  Anyway, lets try to convert pounds to kilograms?






Hash?  What is this, some kind of dope-dealer-app?



No, Apple have presumably decided that "in the US, we call the # key on your keyboard 'pound' but because you're set to Orstrayan, we need to change all uses of that word to 'hash'."





For the life of me, I can't think of anywhere else in the Apple UI that they show me the word 'pound' or indeed 'hash'.
