they'll simply be within 1% ...

** WRONG.

You need to learn a new word.


** You need to go get ****ed - psycho.

** Prove it.

With real data.

I don't know what you think your experience has been but the
specification for tolerance is initial at 25C and the rest are
add-ons. Always have been.


** Crap.
