Takeaway
  • The relative standard uncertainty fell by a factor of about 10 from the 2002 to the 2022 edition (7.8×10⁻³ → 7.6×10⁻⁴): the error bars narrowed that much.
  • Of 5 earlier editions with a measured value, 4 have the 2022 value outside ±1σ (the error bar) and 4 outside ±2σ (the bar doubled); the normal expectation is about 1 in 3 and 1 in 22.
  • The largest move between editions came in 2014→2018, at 5.3 times the combined standard uncertainty of the two editions (|z| = 5.3).
