Competition for food,water,shelter,companionship is an innate characteristic of man. Measuring the amount of anything has ALWAYS been a function of life. The amount of measurement and it's importance is variable to each person..but it's still there...

Frist measure recorded by Eve when she first met Adam. "Wow...man" (incidentally that was how the word woman came about) ... 2 and half palm length and 1 and half wrist in diameter!

That's when they decided that more than a handful is wasted.
Measuring things came natural to man. There was no reaction. It's not like someone discovered it and spread the word.
