And IIRC, you have experienced my father playing Devil's Advocate at some point.

No, I'm more selective with whom I play devil's advocate with. After all,
this aus.moto, not real life, I *don't* need to be an advocate here.

Jeez that was a low blow. I do and I have maintained it. The "volume"
injected is not a random number. It will be based on parameters that are
peculiar to the engine and appropriate for the required performance etc.

Based on that, there *must be* with in a known error range of fuel consumed.

Are we still on the same page here?

I'll guffaw at your assertion that fuel pumps are not accurate, and continue
to be amazed at your lack to do anything active about ensuring that the
"inaccuracies" are fixed. I mean, if you can't buy fuel accurately, how the
hell are you going to measure it'd consumption?
