Extracts and Measuring by Weight

Ladies and gentlemen - I'm getting concerned with the auto populated weight section on the recipe section. I have been checking a few of my extracts and it seems some extracts weigh more or less than the amount shown on the recipe formula. This site (and maybe all eliquid calculator sites) seems to show all flavoring in PG weighs the same. For instance: Strawberry (Ripe) (TFA) 2/ml = 2 Grams, Lemon 2/ml = 3 Grams. Well I can't Imagine all extracts (in PG) weigh the exact same. There has to be more density or less density to varying concentrates. I've noticed the same with VG - My recipe calls for 61.6/ml of VG which should measure out to 77.68 grams. But it's short. If I go to the amount need by grams, it's closer to 64/ml of VG. This is concerning me regarding consistency from one mixer to the next. I know I could measure out 10/ml per extract, divide by 10 and get a true per ml weight. I was just assuming this site has already done that but now I'm thinking that's not true.

And yes, I have calibrated my scale and have the AWS SC501-A. This could be a huge undertaking for the website but I think it's imperative to have EXACT weight measurements for consistency.

Anyone have any info to deliver? Maybe another robust 'By Weight' eliquid calculator site they would recommend? I hate to leave here but I can't have inaccurate measurements either. Help!
