That's a controlled environment where the same techniques, equipment, and quality checks are used.
Not so much in our garages where folks use Harbor Freight torque wrenches, put 30wt motor oil on the bolt and nut, or their kid threw the torque wrench in the toolbox like a toy (exaggerating, but you get my point).
There's virtually no variability in strecthing.
