Should contradictory documents be described as a conflict before their causes are resolved?
Two records differ when they tested different articles, under different standards, for different things, and that is not a contradiction.
Each report names the article it tested and the standard or method it used, so two records can be compared on the same terms, and the Validation page states: “Industry standards ASHRAE 52.2 Appendix J and ISO 16890 test electrostatic filters after their temporary charge is removed, showing how they perform without it.” A capture standard is not a destruction standard: ASHRAE 52.2 and ISO 16890 measure what a filter takes out of the air passing through it. A test on one article is not a result for another article, and a laboratory result is not a result for a building.
