How so? If my routine is all off by the same relative error (say 10%), then I may be at 225W instead of 250W by the meter. If I dial it up to 400W by the meter, but really am at 360W, then I really am 15W off (I thought I went up 150W but really went up 135W). Is 15W that big a deal?

If the error is absolute (real W + 15W for example) then I don't see it as an issue at all.

Not trying to argue, but to understand.
