Does sifting sugar have the same result as sifting flour?

Flour is more of a powder and is easily compressed. Varying density means varying amounts of flour. As I understand it, sifting flour is done to slightly aerate the flour to give it a consistent density. A consistent density is favorable to accurate measurements being obtained when baking, since recipes call for specific amounts of ingredients for them to work. Sifting also removes lumps. Sugar, the basic processed granules you buy to bake with, is all of a consistent size. Sifting would tend to break up the granules into smaller pieces. This would make the sugar more dense and could throw off measurements as well as affect taste. Powdered sugar tastes different and acts slightly different than granule sugar. For these reason, sifting would not be recommended for sugar, though if it clumps, banging it around a bit to bust up the clumps should be fine.
