Is it ever significant to know? Your body weight varies naturally depending on food intake, waste disposal, and even when you last went for a hair cut. If sub-kilo variations are medically relevant, I would expect one to measure more than just weight.

I think he's talking about precision, not accuracy.

When making weight for a sport. Any more time than necessary spent dehydrating is energy and recovery you're not going to have for the event.
