Default What size shirt do quoted ounces represent

When a blank shirt seller lists a shirt at 5.6 ounces what size shirt does that 5.6 oz reflect? I want to compare it to shirts I currently own

That actually refers to the weight of the material itself, not the finished shirt. So a shirt that's made with 5.6 oz fabric can be any size (s-10XL+).

I believe that's the weight of 1 yard of that fabric, pre-assembly.

Correct, 1 square yard.

Even so, not all 5.6oz shirts are equal. Some seem heavier/thicker than others. Always get samples.
