It's pretty easy to get it that close or better in square. You can keep everything just snugged up until all together and then nudge the square of things a bit with a 4x4 until you're done climbing around on your table.
I am too old to be climbing around the table, enter Son in Law...
I got mine all squared.... snugged things up and finished the assembly. Then right before I fastened the spoil boards down, checked it one last time and got it dead square.
I think mine is square and my cross members are off. If I measure corner to corner ti is perfect, and the rails are exactly on spot from one end to the other. I will have to test it after I get the boards down on her.

since i have never seen sheet goods that were square off the shelf I set my table close not to much worried about it being perfect then used a long bit and trimmed the whole thing square being extra careful not to hit the steel supports
