Do I need a 0.1g scale for coffee?

Reviewer consensus

Pour-over and espresso users in specialist communities generally want 0.1g resolution, which standard 1g kitchen scales don't offer. Among the candidates here, the BOMATA advertises 0.1g precision, but most general-purpose picks like the Escali Primo, Nicewell and Amazon Basics resolve to 1-2g, which reviewers say is fine for cooking and baking but not ideal for dialing in coffee doses.
