When I went to

I noticed this statement

             Thousands of a mm - that's the tolerance of
             accuracy at the LEGO mould factories.

I don't think that you mean that the tolerances are on the order of meters (a
thousand mm is a m), do you?

That is thousandths of a millimeter, versus 1000 millimeters.
