Haven't really used a mocha pot before, so I'm experimenting a little to find the right grind settings and ratios for my taste. Normally brew espresso on a flair classic. Went with this more modern design from bialetti because it also works on induction stoves.

I agree with almost all of that, except I do fine filling the basket and wiping excess off with the back of a knife

But I do always use the same coffee on the same grind setting (I dialled it in years and years ago)

My point is volumetric measurement is fine if you're accurate and consistent

+1 on cleaning with soap. I put the basket through the dishwasher, and weekly hand wash the aluminium parts

Even when i chance coffee type often and also use caffeine free coffee it almost always works if I use weight. But yes if you always just use the same coffee and grind setting then of course it'll work. I just find that even 1-2g over and it'll clog the brewer and it'll start sputtering before it is half way though
