Also, just because "So and so let me take it all the time" doesn't mean the same rule applies to the airline you're travelling on TODAY.
After a few years of taking this crap for XS BB and carry on BB I had a stock answer to this "You were very fortunate weren't you". Have you noticed how these pax were some of the last to check in?!!

Danger

i had a syd -christchurch with JQ, i agree to the fact that i had xs luggage but to be told its 9 ks 90 dollars was plain rubbish, the beatch ACTUALLY wrote on the back of the luggage dockets 8 kg XS, she turns around to me saying no its 9, not 8 i'm like yeah so why did you write 8 on the dockets, she replies oh its airline practice to round it up.
Tell you what i'm gonna be wearing my ski boots at check in on return. might have to take them off at security screening tho.
hope she enjoys her commission
ps. they let you go away with 21kg per person, but anything over 21kg gets charged retroactively from the 20kg limit.

EWL. One would not mind the old 1% of the Y Class fare, however we got slugged around $29 per kg, BNE/HKG.

At least on the way back this time, "the handmaiden" didn't ask for "an aisle seat near the toilet" as she required returning from Kolkata!!
