Default Altimeter Calibration Height

That's not logical.

Of course it's logical. The heavier they are, the more force is exerted
on them. You can test this by dropping a stone and a feather.

As it turns out, in our universe, increased inertia exactly
counterbalances the increased gravitational force, but there is no
(logical) reason for the universe to operate that way. In fact, I am
not convinced that it does operate that way to the last decimal point.

If logic were sufficient, there would be no experimental physics.
