Why does the liquid measuring cup have no rim above the 1 cup marker?
That particular type of measuring cup is actually made for measuring solids (flour, sugar and the like), not liquids, even though a cup is a liquid measure. There is no rim to allow for a straight edge to be used to level the measurement. Measuring cups, for actually measuring liquids, are graduated, and do not measure to the top, to prevent spillage.
Can you use the same measuring cup when measuring ingredients for pastry?
Yes, but you should measure solids before measuring liquids. If you, for example, measure water before measuring flour, the flour will stick to the measuring cup.
