Yes, it's a sort of insurance against a 6 dB favourable error. But the point is that it's FAR easier to cope with in practice, and it may well give a more dependable assurance of compliance than a complex uncertainty assessment. Of course, in some cases it may be difficult to achieve, but for products made in any significant volume a 6 dB margin at the compliance test stage is no more than is needed for a quiet life in the months to come! -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
