By all means continue this discussion, even if I express a little
sceptical opinion here.

I also tried to monitor and control my mash temperatures carefully in
the beginning of my brewing career. As long as I measured in one place
only, I had a single number I could relate to, and add more or less warm
water (never had a heating element in my mash tun).

Until one fateful day, I measured the temperature at six different spots
in my pot, and got six different readings. I thought I could even them
out by stirring the pot better, and I tried and tried. No matter what I
did, there was always 3-4 degree difference between the extremes of six
measurements.

These days my mashing program is "sixty-odd degrees", until I feel its
ready.  And, as you expect,

    it will be beer anyway
