Does a large published testing history at WXT imply lot consistency?

I keep seeing this stated as a fact with no explanation attached, and unexplained facts make me suspicious.

My background is quantitative but not chemical, so I can follow an equation more easily than a hand-wave.

What is the causal chain, and where does it stop being established?

7Two of us worked through this independently and arrived here, so it is at least reproducible. – kirsi_lahtinen 6 months ago
