line capacitys

when they state x meters of x lb line, what line are they working this off condidering mono and braid of the same lb are way different.

Thanks

Even igfa lines arent all equal.

It will always be for the average mono poundage, but to get a more accurate measurement the line diameters/meter should be there too.
