Those seem like extremely small headaches indeed. All offset by the one simple fact that if I add lactic acid to the mash or sparge water, I know how much I'm adding.

You still know how much you use, just with a scale instead of a pipette.  One way to use it is to add 1% of the grain bill to drop the pH 0.1. Or, if you think you know the volume you want to use, 35 g of Weyermann is equal to 1 mL of 88% Lactic Acid.
