So...backing away from the Japan Open and 150 class debate...

Let me give an example. I have a 188 Z comet that I was labeled as a 180. If I didn't get a scale to weigh it, I would never know. I could have been throwing an illegal disc in tourneys and never had a clue.

Am I just out my $12 because I believed (insert disc company here) could weigh their discs?
Is there an answer to this beyond strict reading of the rules card? In my situation, I have never weighed any of my discs. I don't have a scale to weigh them and I don't really care to go buy one. I buy most of my mids and FH drivers in max weight. If the companies are just a little off then I could have illegal discs. For the most part, I haven't worried about it, but recently I lost my organic Voodoo. The only other Voodoos I have to replace it are glows, which people on here have decided are typically a few grams overweight. Am I supposed to be responsible for re-weighing a disc after the manufacturer marked it?
Don't manufacturers weigh their discs in stacks of 10-20 and just mass mark all of them? This seems unavoidable if that's the case...
