Adds to the spice of life.
My wife commandeered my first electronic scale - a pocket Lyman - for kitchen duty. She likes the fact that it fits in a drawer so easy and is good for small measures in grams. She has a larger electronic kitchen scale but it only goes down to the gram, not tenths. I bought a second one and leave it in my desk drawer. Sometimes I even use it.
If you look at the mechanism of a Lee drum or perfect measure, they're doing the same thing as a handloader does with a dipper: measuring a volume of powder equal to a particular weight of powder. The drum or pocket is adjustable and so are some hand dippers. One big difference is speed. After nearly a half-century of using powder dippers to pull powder and drop it in a pan, I'm faster than the mechanical dipper with a pull handle and (typically) more precise. I'm not doing anything cut flakes or logs, I don't leak (often) or spill (much) and my hand has become tuned to the motion of push-tilt-pull-drop to the point that I can do it with my eyes closed to within +/- 0.2gr. pretty easily, even with powders that "don't meter well." But, in the end, it's a personal preference, not a requirement or even an advantage. I'm fairly certain a $200 powder dispenser is just as accurate as my fingers - with a powder that meters well.
