Their pint is still a pint, but a half-gallon: not nearly a half-gallon.
But then, what is?
Oh, Milk for one. Soft drinks up the game- their half-gallon, with the conversion to Metric, is actually _bigger_. Except for pump shenanigans, a gallon of gas is still a gallon of gas.

I blame corporate people who decide screwing the people who buy their product is OK.
The new business model dictates that corporations are invincible and damn the customer! So what if you don't like it, there are scores of others who have yet to discover that we are screwing them and when they do...well, there are more new customers beyond that! Quality and value are dead. If I sound cynical, it's probably because I am.
