I agree with you. There's clearly been a lot of work put into this but it's sooooo busy that I find it unpleasant to use.

For me, a different UI could fix the problem. Give me a field where I can ask directly "how many cups are in 4.37 cubic meters?"

As it stands now, I can get the answer from any search engine or voice assistant more quickly than from this site.

Think it's designed more for SEO than usability.
