For me 10 watts is not worth worrying about. I'm looking for trend data that indicates an increase (or decrease) in FTP. If my distributions are trending down AND I don't seem to ever hit an IF of 1.00 on hour long rides that feel like threshold rides, then I know my FTP needs to be adjusted downward. Upward adjustments would be made for the converse. I usually pick the top number of a bin. It's close enough.
