Kilogram and Pound are physical units with a fixed physical conversion relation, it is not allowed to enter 2 values for such cases.

This is a standard function for current release. C4C is more restrictive on conversions. A conversion between Pound and Kilogram makes no sense, as both are physical units with a fixed relation.
