Dear Helmut

❝ If you take the points mentioned on top into account, it might be reasonable to expect a larger even for measured ±≤5 %. I’m happy with Skar’s 7.5%.


Yes, I agree. But this is just for your own estimation. In the study protocol I would compensate a larger than ±≤5% by assuming a higher intra-individual CV% since a naive and inexperienced assessor expects an equivalent product (ideally 1:1 and if differences than not more than 5%. Do you remember the discussion about point estimators and confidence intervals?
Kind regards
Dan

Kind regards and have a nice day

Most scientists today are devoid of ideas, full of fear, intent on
producing some paltry result so that they can add to the flood
of inane papers that now constitutes “scientific progress”
in many areas.    Paul Feyerabend
