There's a big difference between the *mould* tolerance (the 5 micron one)
and the tolerance on the resulting ABS part.
Running the process faster, releasing the ABS parts at a higher temperature,
will make the produced parts more irregular (higher tolerances).
So, there isn't necessarily any disagreement between those different
numbers.
