You think an "ISO Cleanliness Code" system would even exist that goes down to 1 micron if the machines used to measure fluid cleanliness were mere random number generators? See the link from WellOiled's post:

And what proof do you have that the objects aren't as accurate as the instruments? If you're trying to say that engines aren't manufactured/bored to precise measurements, your head must be stuck in the 1970s. I have every confidence that today's engines are built fully utilizing the ability to measure down to the nanometer. The data is used; utilized. The data is not empty.
