Amount of salt in salted butter (FYI)

I don't think that's true, most people placed on a low salt diet never
adjust to the lack of salt, what they do is find alternatives, none of
which actually suffices... like telling someone who drinks alcoholic
beverages that seltza with cranberry juice is just as good.

I don't restrict my salt intake but still I only buy unsalted butter.
I like to control the salt in baked goods, especially for items that
require melted butter brushed onto the surface, say like sticky buns.
And I don't want salted butter melted onto seafood, and especially not
for for dipping shellfish... salty clarified butter is most disgusting
TIAD. And for buttered bread I don't want the salt in the butter, I
much prefer sprinkling salt onto the surface, in fact I probably
sprinkle more butter than is in salted butter, a lot more, I pile on
the kosher salt like a blizzard.
