It DOES matter and that's why you need to be very clear on how you properly measure when you use volumetric measures for powders.
Most serioys US bakers use metric eg a stick of butter is 113g of butter.
If it's a recipe that it matters in then the standard is to not pack the flour and to level the top of the cup, otherwise (like broccoli) its being used as a helpful guestimate for an items total, not a necessary and essential measurement
