But when <5 is reported in essence it means that it is an exception. It is not a precise result. It does not mean that it is less than 5 only. It means that something of an exceptional state in in order. It could be zero, it could be 4.999.. And anything in between but not an exact figure like x=5.1 units of a kind.
