 One situation this might matter in is if someone is considering the 
conversion, imaging or scanning a large volume of cartons of records and 
they are attempting to estimate the cost of the effort. 
 Naturally, they would have to consider many other factors about the source 
documents in those cartons to get an accurate estimate, but if they're 
attempting to get a "ballpark figure", the first issue someone higher on the 
food chain might as is "how many pieces of paper are we talking about?"
 After all, not everyone is fortunate enough to be a Records Manager and 
have OUR level of knowledge!
