    Trevor-
     <That slop will produce a random error in observed altitudes.>
    Bearing in mind, if the user always turned the screw the same way (i.e., past then back, past then back, or opposed to "this way" or "that way") then there should be less slop and the errors would fall to one side of the possible range, rather than spread to both sides of it, no?
