"It probably depends on the size and state of the leaf. (fresh vs. dried, vs crumbled and the humidity in the air)

Anyways...A classified source tells me the weight of a dry medium-sized leaf is about 0.2635 oz"

No way is this true! There are about 12 medium size Bay leaves per gram.

12x28=336per oz

This is only an average and by no means exact.

About a quarter teaspoon.

Because the ground bay leaf is made from dried bay leaves, the flavour is stronger and more intense so you don't need as much.
