Why can't we all just get along ):

Because professional cooks are assholes that have had humanity and compassion beaten out of them.

In what world does the variance in tablespoon sizes possibly ruin a recipe

Australian tablespoon is 15lm, US is 20ml. Your australian grandma makes a Thing You Like, you work in a professional kitchen, you make it for your boss, he likes it, tells you to make 300 for a party this weekend. You then scale grandma's recipe x 300, but you're using a US tablespoon. Your recipe now has 25% MORE of everything that was originally measured in tablespoons. Your Thing is ruined, and you've wasted hundreds of dollars in food. This is why we bake in grams.

also if literally everything is 25% more than originally intended dont you just have 25% more of the same recipe

No, only anything that was measured in Tablespoons, loving idiot. This is why imperial measurements are stupid in baking. That was the whole point of tablespoon chat.
