Difference between them: 3/4 cup - 1/4 cup = 2/4 cup = 1/2 a cup 3/4 cup is 1/2 a cup more than 1/4 cup.

I think it'd be OK in most recipes. But, when you use a dry measure, it's really easy to not put in enough, or to spill over. So, if you were measuring, say, 2 1/4 cups of flour with a 1/4 cup measure, I think you could screw up your chocolate chip cookies easily.
My dry measure cup-cup has 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 cup measure marks on the inside. When you buy measuring cups, it's really worthwhile to look for cups that can multi-task like this.

Yes, I did it that way just today. 3 x 1/4 = 3/4

Your question is not as silly as it sounds. Some people (and by that I do mean chefs) forget that wet and dry measurements are different. 3/4 of a cup is 6oz of a solid ingredient. Yes You can measure the milk out that way.

Yes. But it sounds like you are using "dry" measuring cups rather than a liquid cup. With most recipes, the difference wont be noticed. Just be careful not to put too much milk in. You can always add more.

It depends on the recipe. Cooking is like Chemistry, and in chemistry you may have learned that certain combinations or mixtures are not scalable.
It is more than likely that this will be fine, but not in every case, particularly in spicy foods.
