A repeatable maturation loop depends on comparable observations; sampling volume and complexity can scale without abandoning procedural consistency.
The passage distinguishes consistency and decision relevance from an expensive universal laboratory model.
Wiehebrink argues that an experimental sensory program should be designed around its goal and available resources; even a small program is useful if its procedure is consistent and produces the data or result needed for the decision.
