No Dave,

Spirit levels are only as accurate as the actual bubble.

And the person reading them. Same as many things. Not all will judge
accurately when the bubble is *exactly* between the lines as well as some.

If you get a poor quality level then the 'bubble' seldom 'touches' the
line and *that* leads to guesswork and inaccuracy - or simply a level
that isn't long enough for the job.

I don't think I've got one where the bubble is *exactly* the length of the
distance between the lines. Including a couple of pricey ones.

As a matter of interest, good quality levels usually have bubble
adjustment screws fitted as standard.

Yes - I realise that. But most don't.
