Used a couple of US recipes recently and most of the ingredients are in cups, or spoons, not by weight. This is a nightmare to convert. Do Americans not own scales or something? What’s the reason for measuring everything by volume?

Not quite the same as Stones and Kilogrammes are both units of weight. Using cups is like weighing somebody using those luggage size baskets in the airport.
Because you can’t pack a scale and weights on a cart as easily as you can a set of cups?
Why are you using weights?
Digi’s are like ten bucks
They are now. Not when people were going out west on wagons. As stated above, it’s because of historical reasons.
