    Exactly. You need to use a cup to move the thing from its container to a mixing bowl, might as well use a measuring cup

      Spoon out sugar, spoon out flour, pour in milk, pour in oil, drop bits of other things in until you get to the weight needed. Even if you wash all of the spoons, it’s easier than measuring cups. At worst, you still use a measuring cup or two, but still fewer than before.

      Look, I was with you until recently, but your argument really has no leg to stand on.
