Answer:

Obviously one must define more exactly the influence factors

for the quantity to be measured !

Question:

Can we fix all measuring conditions?

GUM

How to know the “true value”?

Answer:

In principle, the quantity to be measured

cannot be

completely

described without an

infinite

amount of

information.

If it is impossible to define

all conditions,

the "true value"

must ultimately remain unknown

Consequence:

If the true value remains unknown, the value of an "

error

"

and even worse, also that of "

accuracy

“ can not be exactly

evaluated and therefore also must remain unknown.
