Context: A shipment of powdered milk was exported from Melbourne to China. The amount of powdered milk was equal to 5,000 tins (units). The Bill of Lading attached to the transport read that the goods were shipped in 5 large containers. Along the journey of transport, two of the containers were stolen by pirates whilst the other three were delivered at a delayed time.

Question: If the Bill of Lading read that the goods were shipped in 5,000 cans rather than the five large containers, would the carrier be liable for greater damages/compensation than the original 5 containers that were listed on the document?
