Somebody is lying

Look, I'm not one to fling around accusations, and generally I like to believe the best about people.  But I call it as I see it and here it is:

What is the point of a standard, people, if no one follows it?  What you see on the left is a ball of 100g/223 yard worsted weight yarn.  What you see on the right is 100g (both balls together)/ and 222 yards worsted weight yarn.  Um, no.  I have to call BS on this one.  One thing is not like the other.  

My picture does not fully conveyed the difference in the thickness of these yarns.  Is this the equivalent of vanity sizing for yarn?  Are we basically saying, "You're not bulky, Patons. You're just worsted."?
