A "cup" of coffee is officially 8oz and typically between 80 and 100mg.

Starbucks coffee doesn't really have a higher ratio of caffeine, just more volume than the official measurements.

That being said, I don't know anybody that drink 8oz cups of coffee.

Coffee "cups" are measured in units of 6 oz:

I make coffee at home every day. I rarely go to places like Starbucks. I just measured my cup and it's 8 oz. I have one cup every morning.

I think the point is that there is a difference between a cup of filter coffee and an espresso drink (Americano, latte, cappuccino etc) with the same volume. The first one is well... coffee, the latter contains only a shot or two of espresso and the rest of the volume in the cup is hot water/milk.
