Subject: should be "of error" not "vera" sm

Sometimes they say something like this: "A registration error of 3.1 mm was obtained. Surface matching registration was then performed on all levels." So, if they're not giving you a specific number, like 3.1 mm, then you would spell out "The millimeters of error were registered..."

Unless it is stated 3 mm you cannot assume that it is mm
Subject: Unless it is stated 3 mm you cannot assume that it is mm

According to a very detailed message from my QA department with authoratative references cited, unless the first measure is stated specifically, you are making an assumption that _3_ is mm and cannot assign 3-4 mm. They explained I had to use 3 x 4-mm effusion. There are many units of measure and their point was to assume is not permissible as it could be an error.
