Why is giving it in terms of body mass when that is the official
standard not correct?. For some drugs there is a range of usual dose,
for some there is a single standard dose. We are on much firmer
ground reporting a standard than reporting an empirical range based
upon non-official secondary sources.
Or is it expecting readers to do multiplication and addition and the
like? I think that's reasonable also, though we could always work it
out for an example.

Something like that I wouldn't have a big problem with. It's comments
like "the standard dose is 2mg/kg body mass" that I wouldn't like.
