I think your closing statement contradicts your earlier statement about weighing less (though I get the point you’re trying to make about mass).

Do we consider weight a sum of all interactions in a given place (including atmosphere)? I’d say we do, since our atmosphere accounts for a notable portion of our weight, and I’ve never seen a scale with a negative tare to account for atmospheric weight.
