There is a best practice of spooning flour into the measuring cup to avoid dense packing but in my experience most people just scoop and go even though it introduces variability. Usually it won't matter too much or you'll see things like, "If the dough seems dry add more water a tablespoon at a time." included in the recipe. Of course even with weight you sometimes see that sort of instruction because the moisture content of flour varies.
I get why that'd be a bit annoying particularly if you aren't experienced with the type of dish.
