When should I weigh Graham crackers, square instead of using cups?

Whenever the recipe specifies grams or when flavor and texture hinge on exact amounts. Cups are practical; scales are accurate.

What error margin should I expect on Graham crackers, square measurements?

About ±10 % for volume measures, ±1 % for scale measures. Recipes robust to ±10 % work from either; tight bakes need the scale.
