For baking, precision is important, but subsequently most recipes are precisely specified, so the conversion should be followed pretty exactly. For most non-baking recipes, precisions is much less important, so a 'recipe translator' could either perform some rounding (maybe there should be a 'level of precision' metadata element for recipes), or, I could just do the rounding in my head and use my critical thinking facilities rather than following the recipe blindly.
