It's tough to tell whether you're being contrary or tongue in cheek, so bear with me.
I don't think anyone questioned whether one existed or not, or whether anyone uses one or not (personally, I don't care). The point was "what is the *point* of measuring to 1/10th of a degree", when, as Sharon said, a slight change in posture makes it totally useless.
When accepted margin of error is ±5°, it's an absolutely bogus, misleading figure.
KAlong has 2 posts (both today), and she hasn't said WHO the doctor is in either one. For all *I* know, it IS Deutschman, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it's the skater providing some backup for her 1/10th of a degree claim!
