Considering the end user, why are the most common cement packages so heavy and difficult to manipulate?

You think you are considered as end user. But you are not.
Worker at the build site are considered end user. And it’s not tooo heavy for those machines of man.
I’m pretty sure they are JUST light enough to be considered a “safe one man lift” by health and safety laws. if they could make them heavier they would.
I’ve seen (and bought) smaller bags of cement so it is possible. Requires more math for the mixing, but lots easier on the back.
My understanding is that the 94lb bag of portland is 1 cubic foot. this keeps the mix ratios easy at 1 portland, 2 sand, 3 gravel.
It basically keeps the math easy.
The end user is not your average homeowner. Most people using them do it for a living. My man can pick up two 80lb bags at a time.
