It's easier to make a bottle to sell in most countries rather than make a difference bottle for a single market. Especially when that market has lax consumer rights laws.
They still need different prints etc.
They’ll try to rationalize that part, but they still have to pay attention to regional preferences.
I don’t even know if the sizes are all the same here in EU. In Germany the most common bottle sizes are 250ml (1l/4), 330ml (1l/3), 500ml (1l/2), 750ml (3l/4) and 1l afaik. 200ml (1l/5), 375ml (3l/8) and 2l also seem to be a thing.
33cl is the standard for beer and 75cl for vine.
My measuring cap for my cola syrup has markings for 250ml, 500ml and 1l. As well as 615ml and 840ml because of Soda Stream bottle sizes.
Same here historically. US beer cans and bottles used to be 12 oz and I still occasionally see them. I even have one in my fridge.
But most new beers (as in new brands, new styles, actual good beer) are sold in pint cans, which in theory should match a bar draft (but don’t always and there are no regulations to protect consumers)
I never go into the “swill” aisle of my package store so my perspective may be biased
