They are not. No public standard enforces any margin. Even measurement uncertainty is not taken into account, unless (in some standards) your uncertainty is larger than an assumed (calculated) value (depending on test set up and test type).

All the issues being raised regarding possible variability must be known to the members of various standards committees. Does anyone know that the issues are *not* taken into account when the committees set test levels? If standards are followed, including any instructions regarding EUT sampling and measurement uncertainty, why assume additional margins must be applied?
