I usually add 2mm because I've found some of the eyelets on TB14 rims to be inconsistent from batch to batch, which affects the ERD. It's better to have a couple of mm extra than not enough.
I think that is one of 4 or 5 I used when choosing spokes for my touring bike. I wanted to make sure I was correct since it was the first time I had done handbuilt wheels for myself.
2mm is not much so I might as well remember that for when I buy my spokes or cut my spokes.
Any views on Phil Wood Spokes?
