For me it is a rule of principle:  If the HP5370 is clocked from the
same source I'm measuring, I can have no expectation of a well
behaved noise from the triggers.

The "noise" you saw is probably exactly that:  Overly optimistic
results if you clock the counter from one of the DUTs

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
