> Which leads me to the next question. Most bundles are advertised as being .33 square or 3 bundles = a square = 100 square feet.

I think three-tab bundles are a little over a third of a square, which gives some allowance for damaged shingles. I'm pretty sure the count of three-tab shingles in a bundle can vary by a shingle or two, but that's probably not the case with architectural shingles. A bundle of architectural shingles must have an even count because pairs of shingles are packaged facing each other.
Note that coverage can vary depending on how much of the shingle is exposed and if a lot of trimming is required.
Metric architectural shingles are much heavier per bundle than three-tab. So manufacturers probably tend to go light on the bundles so they can be carried up a ladder without too much difficulty. Which would explain bundles being significantly less than a third of a square.
