Like others you're assuming that the high resolution of the readout implies greater accuracy or precision (repeatability). There's little evidence to support this conclusion. All spoke tension meters rely on the same indirect method of measurement and have similarly limited accuracies and/or precision.
While useful, tension meter readings are subject to error and can only be used based on the level of the accuracy or repeatability of the instrument.
