That is not new though? I am fairly certain I bought both sizes at various places all over Europe. I guess the 440 is meant for the british market while the 500 is intended for civilised countries.
Why would the 440ml be for the UK specifically?
I always thought it was because 440ml is a round number when you convert it from metric to medieval units (not a pint though, which is 568ml), but a quick google shows me there's another reason:
Nice sleuthing, I was just checking it against non metric volumes and closest is a US pint (437.1…ml).
We all (maybe) learned something new today.
2 units of alcohol?
What is a unit of alcohol?
The UK measures alcohol in units to track total amount consumption, as it's not easy to track with percentage in volume. A unit is 10 ml of pure alcohol, and cans/bottles/etc have the total units printed. That way it's supposed to be easier to track how much alcohol you drink e.g. if you drink a beer, then a wine - now that's 4 units.
I'm not British so I'm not used to units, but at least that's the theory.
A non-standardized amount of grams of alcohol in a standard drink.
Each country have their own definitions, usually between 8-14g somewhere, and then each country use that to create their own health rules of how many standard units of alcohol can be part of a healthy nutrition guidelines / low-risk consumption guidelines.

It's a simplified version of ABV that the UK invented to easier track alcohol consumption
I guess it translates to one of those units used in the US and UK, that you divide by twentyeleven, then multiply by two large fries, and you get the result in football (which is actually hand-egg ball) fields.
